I'm not that familiar with variable size binary data in PostgreSQL, but
I guess something like "bytea" should work.  With MySQL, "LONGBLOB" worked.

Usually, you need to encode those objects in a way ldapadd can munch.
For example, base64 encode them, like

binaryAttr:: thisisabase64encodedvalue=

or ask it to swallow the file as is, using

binaryAttr:< file:///path/to/binary.dat

Not sure I understand what you mean.  But here we're getting off-topic
with this ITS; please continue discussion, if needed, on the
openldap-software mailing list.
