[LDAP] Using foreign charsets / adding entries base64-encoded

[Andreas Kotes <count@linux.de>]

Hi!

When I add entries containing umlauts the server checks them in fine, and
ldapsearch gets them fine, too. But when I try to look up the records with
Netscape I get a "?" for each umlaut, rendering the result unusable.

How can I tell the server to use latin1-charset, or how can I enter
base64-encoded data, expecially using the Net::LDAPapi-Module for Perl?
(I think this should work the same way from C) ... I already had a look at
draft-good-ldap-ldif-00.txt and this helped somehow, but I'm quite unsure
if this would make any difference for Netscape ... ?
