Hi, Found a better solution with the help of my colleagues. We just had to add , raw => qr/(?i:^jpegPhoto|;binary)/ ] to net_ldap_args.

Which is an okay workaround for us, but maybe you know of a better workaround? Unfortunately my perl foo is not good enough to found the root cause of this issue.
