Re: Base64 encoded attributes

[Glenn B. <gl...@ca...>]

I'm actually not encoding the attribute values, Fedora Directory is, =20
so I'm just trying to find a way to deal with it. I'm just trying to =20
find out how to get the values in any form so I can work with them. =20
The return object does not contain the encoded values at all.

My current search base is:
  base_dn =3D ou=3D<groupname>,o=3Dcaltech,c=3Dus

The search can be anything and it gives the same problem. For example

  search =3D '(uid=3D<usename>)'

Thanks for responding.
