ldapadd error while adding localized users

Hi all,

I am trying to add localized users into ldap i.e LANG=ja_JP.SJIS

while creating ldif file i am converting SJIS chars into UTF-8 format.

if i give value attribute "gecos:" in ldif file in localized format

I am not able add the user its giving me following error

<error> additional info: gecos: value #0 invalid per syntax </error>

If i am giving rest of the attributes in localized format it works fine

Only problem is with gecos field

can anyone tell is this the desired behavior or Am i missing something?

OpenLDAP version:2.4.11

O.S: RHEL 4.3

Thanks in advance
