This is not a crypt() password hash... This is a permutated MD5 password
hash in UNIX passwd/shadow encoding (also sometimes known as
crypt-md5)..

Who entered this into your LDAP tree as being a crypt password hash?

I do not know if it is possible to transform this into the one of the
MD5 password hash format used by OpenLDAP and others.. maybe it is.

This is a crypt password.

Minor note: It is your LDAP Server which uses the userPassword field,
not squid_ldap_auth. The field needs to be formatted in a manner
understood by your LDAP server for login purposes.
