The LDAP-utitilities are not internationalized and so return always the
Base64-encoded value as saved in the server. Base64-encoding is for
numbers usually not necessary. How is the attribute "slot" defined?

Ah short hack, to show the base64-decoded Value is

perl -MMIME::Base64 -e 'print decode_base64("YOURSTRING"),"\n"'
