LDAP itself is merely a protocol that allows creation/update/retrieval of
records that can be
anything you have a schema for. If you have control of the server and you
can grow your
own user authentication client, you can use practically any encoding you
like. If you are
going to have passwords stored in plaintext, then you certainly want SSL.

MD5 encoding is common enough to simplify testing.
