As far as I know yunohost ldap server doesn’t allow external access, it only allows localhost that’s why there is no password

> Slapd is configured to only listen to localhost, you need to tweak its configuration to allow other networks. The file is at /etc/ldap/ldap.conf, edit its URI accordingly (cf. man ldap.conf) and restart slapd service.
