password field in apacheds

Hi,

I have some weird requirement. As you must be knowing that password field 
is not visible in active directory users listing. Similarly i want that 
password field should not be visible in apacheds on seeing users list from 
ldap browser and the userPassword field should be there in backend at the 
sametime.

Also i want to know that how the userPassword field for superadmin in 
apacheds always shows the type of password encryption and not the actual 
password.

Sorry if the question is weird... stupid managers..

this is possible, just turn on the 'passwordHidden' flag in
DefaultDirectoryService to true.
