That shouldn't pose a problem by itself. Note the double colons (::), 
indicating that this is base64.

Samba binds to the DS as the admin server and then just attempts to overwrite 
the userPassword attribute (I assume you have ldap sync turned on). It seems 
DS doesn't like it: it requires the current password first. Perhaps there is 
some configuration change that can help.
