Ldap dn chars allowed
Hi

Is it possible to add the following to an ldif entry:
dn=estmmartín

i.e Note the charchter 'í'

Thanks in advance

According to RFC2849, it should be base-64 encoded, but the LDAP server should support Unicode internally.

Why not just test to make sure?

I was adding the user via a ldif file.
I am using vim and it wont allow me copy and paste the 'í' character in.

As said, try replacing the string with the base64 encoding of the UTF-8 byte sequence of the string. You can read the RFC for further information, or

http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin23/...t entry format

Code:
cbkihong@cbkihong:~$ perl -MMIME::Base64 -Mutf8 -e 'print encode_base64("estmmartín")'
