title: Is there a way to authenticate with DirectoryServices to LDAP using MD5?
body: <p>I'm using VS 2012, C#.NET and creating a form to authenticate through LDAP.</p>
  
  <p>I have this code, and it's working well:</p>
  
  <pre><code>root = new DirectoryEntry(
                  "LDAP://192.168.116.20:389",
                  username,
                  password
              );
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Both username and password are plain-text.</p>
  
  <p>But I want to create a "Remember password?" checkbox where I can save the username and password md5-hashed in a file.</p>
  
  <p>So, how can I authenticate using the md5-hash with DirectoryEntry and LDAP?! Is it possible?</p>
