are special characters, especially German umlauts, acceptable in the distinguished name?
If the attribute type used to form the DN component is of DirectoryString syntax there's no problem. Note that DirectoryString means UTF-8 encoded Unicode chars.
I've accidentally discovered that CPAN's Net::LDAP::Entry module doesn't support them (in the distinguished name). Other attributes are escaped correctly.
What exactly leads you to this conclusion?
Ciao, Michael.
