Hi Andreas,

it is customary in LDAP to use a dollar sign to represent a newline i.e.
"meine Strasse $ D-99999 $ Musterstadt"
As for the characters not being in the ASCII-7 set you MUST use the
UTF-8 encoding. In this coding the "normal" ASCII-7 chars are left
untouched but the accented characters replaced by a short sequence of
octets.
To do the translation, you may find all the resources you may need on
Internet. Of course the LDAP Server will store the values as you send
them, but don't wonder is you later have problems finding things...

Regards
Giovanni
