Compile the following C program encdec.c.
Then cat <file>|encdec -e -b
it will give you a string encoded in base 64.
Then ldapmodify
mailreplytext:: Gsksio4j22ld-sj22323 <--- the string
^^^^^^^ Note that it is double colon instead of single colon.
Then ldapsearch will will you the original multiline file in field
mailreplytext.

Try
mailReplyText: line 1
line 2
line 3
Nextldifitem: blah
Basically if a ldif line follows onto the next line it should start with
a space iirc

I tried the method you stated below, but all what I get is <
/path/to/some/file in the ldap entry itself.
I have openldap 2.0.19 which I compiled myself.
