What I would like to know is how it comes that the DN looks like it's not
encode
and the attribute is.
I would be happy to have any kind of information about that.

Btw, Reindl Harald, I apologize for my "private" answer. Just hit the reply
button, never
had this kind of problem before. I'll **never** make this mistake again !
