Yes, any binddn should work. We intended this as a password migration 
mechanism which is why we bind as the root user by default but it can 
also just migrate your users I suppose. I briefly looked at the code and 
we aren't explicitly requiring userPassword so I'm thinking it may just 
work if you can bind.

Note that KioqKioqKio= is '********'. Someone has a sense of humor at 
Apple :-)
