!!! Overview
By default the [Universal Password] is configured to write the [password] but not read.

From the [Novell Secure Password Manager Schema] that implements [NSPM]

The [attributeType] [nspmConfigurationOptions] ([Bitmask]) shows values that can be read from [LDAP]

The default behavior is that when the [Universal Password] is set then the [NDS Password] and the [Simple Password] are set to the same value (one exception is that the [NDS Password] will uppercase "a" through "z".

%%warning
Different [eDirectory Versions] and [nspmConfigurationOptions] [MAY] change this behavior. For [example], there are options to __NOT__ sync the [NDS Password] and/or the [Simple Password].
