The best place to *find* answers to programming/development questions, imo, however it's the *worst* place to *ask* questions (if your first question/comment doesn't get any up-rating/response, then u can't ask anymore questions--ridiculously unrealistic), but again, a great reference for *finding* answers.

apache directory studio not showing userPassword field

in an earlier post, i wrote about how to find ldap user passwords:

but yesterday when i tried to view a user's password in apache directory studio, the record for a particular user wasn't showing any userPassword field. i finally figured out that my java code was accidentally setting the user's password to null, thus removing the userPassword field from the record, so it wasn't showing because it didn't exist! (facepalm) ;)
