Note - 389-ds is just a "meta" package - please reference the
version of 389-ds-base, which is the core LDAP server package.<br>

I thought openldap 2.3 had strict syntax checking, that would not
have allowed this value at all - perhaps it was turned off?<br>

<div>If I decode string(base64 command), convert it to UTF8(via
iconv), I can import into Fedora389 successfully. I have a lot

<div>Has anyone come across this before and written a script to
process an LDIF file or a different way to transfer the data?
I’m not much of a programmer but I do have programmers in my

solution.</div>

Scripting is the best way. I recommend python-ldap. I am not aware
of a script that does this.<br>
