International Characters

[Christoph N. <en...@ap...>]

I'm using OpenLDAP 2.0.11 with perlldap 0.23.  I'm trying to insert
international characters into the directory.  I'm wondering if I need to
do anything special with perlldap inorder to achive this feat, or if my
problem is entirely dependant on OpenLDAP.

Here's what I have in the schema

attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.96419.1.1.13
    NAME          'apuHomeStreet'
    DESC          'Street address for home mailing address'
    EQUALITY      caseExactMatch
    SUBSTR        caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch
    SINGLE-VALUE
    SYNTAX        1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15{100} )

I chose the directoryString (UTF-8 format) type since it should allow the
international characters.  However, when I try to insert the string 'im
k=E4ppele 8' I get the error:

apuhomestreet: value #0 contains invalid data
