Hi !

I have a doubt trying to code an "assertion control" (according to RFC 4528) in the "control" field of an LDIF file. The assertion to code is a simple "equalityMatch" filter (i.e. "attribute type = attribute value").

This is the LDIF file I was preparing (to pass to an "ldapmodify" command)

# LDIF file START (it contains all the updates for a single/atomic LDAPModify op.): dn: <entry dn to update> control: 1.3.6.1.1.12 true :<controlValue> changetype: modify ... How do I code the "controlValue" (i.e. the equalityMatch filter describing the required assertion) in the LDIF file? I thought it was the BER encoding, but after reading the formal syntax definition for the control field in RFC 2849 (LDIF spec) it is not clear to me ...

Thanks in advance

BR / Antonio
