A double colon after attribute type name indicates that you have to base64-decode the attribute value. If you want to process LDIF then use a decent LDIF parser. This has not necessarily to do with the attribute values. It would also be valid data encoded in valid LDIF if all attributes are base64-encoded in lines attrType:: attrValue. > It's a uniqueMember attribute so it's supposed to be ascii. No, it's not supposed to be ASCII at least since it contains DNs which can be UTF-8. Maybe in your case it's supposed to be ASCII but not in general. Ciao, Michael.
