regarding entry import

When iam trying to export an ldif file from our Current DS a couple entries have got the dn's in the follwoing way in the ldif"

dn:: Y249RVJJQyBHVUlUw4krdWlkPTQ0MkJSRUcsIG91PVBST0dSRVNTSVZFIFRJTEUgSU5DLG89

aG9tZWRlcG90LmNvbSxjPXVz

When i checked out what is the reason for this?i found that the cn of this entries have some special names like the follwoing

"cn=JASMIN PE袮RUBIA"....because of this the cn attribute of this entry when exported looks in the follwing manner in the ldif file"

"cn:: SkFTTUlOIFBFw5FBUlVCSUE="..

What is the reason for this?is this because i havent installed any language patches on my DS? orelse are there any other reasons for this?how can i check whether there are any language patches being installed on our current productions Servers?

Any non-printable chars are base64 encoded and that is what you are seeing. This should not effect your normal Admin operations

What error do you get ?

Are versions between old server and new server different ?

LDAP specify that you should use UTF-8 to encode non-ascii 7-bits characters.

Then LDIF specify that any string that contains a non 7-bit character must be base 64 encoded.

When adding non ascii values in DNs or attributes, your application should comply to the LDAP standard.

I have installed the DS5.2 patch 5 on AIX5.3 and getting the following error:

ERROR<39171> - Auto-Upgrade - conn=-1 op=-1 msgId

=-1 - Configuration error Phase 2/2 of the data upgrade has failed. Please refe to the error log or output for more information.

Nothing more is written in the errorlig file other than this error.Actually am applying this patch through a script(we have a script called "changescript" that runs on any boxes with root privileges).After installing the patch, The DS is not getting Started automatically ..what might be the problem exactly?

I earlier faced this kind of problem error39171 because of some user privelges ( as the DS is installed with an id ldap which has no root privileges). but am able to overcome this with usign sudo to this id and running the operations. has anyone got this error?
