No. That only transmit the password "plain" to the 389DS. Then 389DS
encript the password with SSHA, then MMR writes in the other server.

So, F12 can't capture a plain password.

Other option is set  Password encript to CLEAR en your F11, but it's
obviously insecure (go to 389-consle, then
Configuration->DATA->Password->Password Encription in the bottom).
