If you're using perl, I suggest using either perldap or Net::LDAP - they both have LDIF parsers that handle this nicely. If you're using python, I think python-ldap also handles this. If you're using sh, see below.

Many thanks to all who replied on this. A quick modification using the Net::LDAP fixed all.

I will also get ahold of the 2849 rfc for future reference.



Interesting also is that db2ldif produces the same behavior.

Ideas on what I could do to get the value retruned back on one line?

I'm not sure if /usr/bin/ldapsearch supports this, but

I checked the /usr/bin/ldapsearch and it does not support the -T. Interestingly it doesn't fail on bad switch / parameter but it yields kinda unpredictable behavior. Kinda like getopts in perl with an unexpected parameter.

Thanks again.

/opt/fedora-ds/shared/bin/ldapsearch has the -T option:
   -T          don't fold (wrap) long lines (default is to fold)
