I'm not familiar with OpenLDAP, but the Sun Directory Server offers a way
to "disable" accounts.  A disabled account will always fail to
authenticate to the LDAP server, but the stored password is not modified.
The account can be un-disabled anytime without setting a new password.

Does OpenLDAP offer a similar feature?
