Description

When importing the attached LDIF using a connection that has the provider set to Apache Directory LDAP Client API, Studio will silently drop and ignore the following value in the LDIF file:

description:: VGjDtmlzIMOlcyBhIHTDpHN0IHllcw==

No errors are shown, the value will show up in the log and everything will look OK but if you check the actual entry in the LDAP server the value is missing.

If I switch the provider to JNDI then everything will be OK.

Tested with:

• Apache DS 2.0 included in Studio 2.0 M13
• NetIQ eDirectory 8.8 SP8 patch 7
• NetIQ eDIrectory 9.0.4
