[389-users] replication password

All,

I am taking over a newly installed 389-ds environment:

389-admin-1.1.29-1.el6.x86_64
389-admin-console-1.1.8-1.el6.noarch
389-admin-console-doc-1.1.8-1.el6.noarch
389-adminutil-1.1.15-1.el6.x86_64
389-console-1.1.7-1.el6.noarch
389-ds-1.2.2-1.el6.noarch
389-ds-base-1.2.11.15-32.el6_5.x86_64
389-ds-base-libs-1.2.11.15-32.el6_5.x86_64
389-ds-console-1.2.6-1.el6.noarch
389-ds-console-doc-1.2.6-1.el6.noarch
389-dsgw-1.1.10-1.el6.x86_64

I have two systems that I will use as Multiple Masters.  The problem is
when creating a replication agreement on each side, replication fails with:

49 LDAP error invalid credentials

So, I need to reset the replication manager user password.  When I look at
the dse.ldif file I see:

dn: cn=replicationManager,cn=config
objectClass: inetorgperson
objectClass: person
objectClass: top
objectClass: organizationalPerson
cn: replicationManager
sn: RM
passwordExpirationTime: 20380119031407Z
nsIdleTimeout: 0
userPassword::
e1NTSEF9dGljWTdhcTlFSVRoYmRrZHhYcWxWN2dLZnhSMVpFeEJWd0xOeEE9PQ=
 =
creatorsName: cn=administrators
modifiersName: cn=administrators
createTimestamp: 20131025040123Z
modifyTimestamp: 20131025040123Z


This looks odd to me regarding the userPassword and it having an 'extra
line' after it.  If I move the '=' sign back to the same above line and
bounce dirsrv it goes back to the above.

In any event, how can I reset this password?   Any assistance is greatly
appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Herb
