So that means that only IA5 strings are allowed to be zero-length (but they are not Unicode) and Directory String attributes however cannot be zero-length by design.

I am confused about the part it says: "But OpenLDAP treats all strings as Directory Strings". Does it means that at the end of the day you cannot use IA5 Strings neither?

Kind regards.

Hi there,

I found this thread:

But it is dated 12 years ago, so I imagine it will be a little bit outdated. Also it claims to be a bug in version 2.0.x while I am using 2.4 in RHEL6.
IIUC, not a bug. http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-software/200510/msg00397.html.   And a better explanation here http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-devel/200211/msg00059.html

Hope useful

Best
