[Fedora-directory-users] UserPassword value in backend?

[Hariharan R]

Hai,
  How the value of 'userpassword' is stored in the database(BDB)?
  I added an entry by specifying the following attributes,

dn: uid=exuser,ou=People, dc=example,dc=com
uid: exuser
uid: 100
givenName: exuser
userPassword: exuser123
objectClass: top
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetorgperson
cn: exuser
sn: exuser

The user is added to the database succefully.I can able to see the 
encrypted password while retrieving it (but i am adding it using the clear 
text format).

  I want to know how the password is actually stored in the database?

  Pls advice me.
