ldapsearch with a base64 encoded filter?

Mike FieldsNov 18 2014 — edited Nov 20 2014

I am trying to conduct an ldapsearch on an instance with the base64 encoded value of uid.

ldapsearch -v -T1 -e  -b "dc=example,dc=com" -p 389 -D "cn=directory manager" -j /ldap/tools/ldappwd uid=ZG1pcmFuMDLCoMKgwqDCoA==

I have attempted many different filters with zero luck.  Some of them are:

     uid:base64=ZG1pcmFuMDLCoMKgwqDCoA==

     uid:b64value=ZG1pcmFuMDLCoMKgwqDCoA==

     uid::base64=ZG1pcmFuMDLCoMKgwqDCoA==

     uid::b64value=ZG1pcmFuMDLCoMKgwqDCoA==

     uid=[ZG1pcmFuMDLCoMKgwqDCoA==]

     uid='ZG1pcmFuMDLCoMKgwqDCoA=='

The decoded value appears like this.

     uid=dmiran02Â Â Â Â

I was just curious if there was a method to search on the base64 encoded value of ZG1pcmFuMDLCoMKgwqDCoA==.  Some OID value that must be specified or something?
