Export/Import Octet String via ldif

Question

I need to transport Attributes from one LDAP Directory (Novell eDirectory) to another. I use LDIF to do that.

But until now, i couldn´t find a way to import Octet Strings this way. The export to ldif seems to work.

The Octet String Attributes i need to transport are: sASLoginConfigurationKey sASLoginConfiguration sASLoginSecretKey sASLoginSecret

Could anybody give me an hint to solve this problem?

Answer 1

This will not work. The attributes you are using have encrypted values that will only be able to be decoded from the Edirectory Tree you are exporting from. (ie the tree you are putting these in, must have the SAME NICI key you took them from)
