[Thalys de Aguiar Gomes]

I was with this same problem, he does not return the password that it is encrypted in LDAP, you have to make a connection via LDAP can use this jar http://www.ganymed.ethz.ch/ssh2/ and after making the connection you run a command that returns the password of a user

Example.:

    
package br.com.tpd.sigresunificado.SSHLDAPConnection;
 
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
 
import ch.ethz.ssh2.Connection;
import ch.ethz.ssh2.Session;
import ch.ethz.ssh2.StreamGobbler;
