Hi.
I'm upgrading from RHEL 5 to RHEL 6. I'm having no problem in RHEL 5.
In RHEL 6 I'm using openldap-2.4.23-15.el6_1.3.x86_64. I have the master/slave setup and working.
Now, I use ldapmodify to edit an entry and instead of plain text, I getting the attribute as base64.
I don't want this. I'm looking everyone but haven't found where to disable this.
Anyone know?
Thanks.

Hi,
base64 is not an encryption. Attributes that can not be represented as text are returned as a base64 string. This also applies for 'userPassword', since the attribute type is "octed string". You can usually identify base64 encoded attributes by a double colon (::) after the attribute name. For example:
foo:: YmFyCg==
instead of
foo: bar
To my current knowledge, this behavior can not be disabled.
