Description Noriko Hosoi 2010-05-25 20:53:46 UTC 
Description of problem:
Sample entry:
dn: CN=Lu\C4\8Di\C4\87, dc=bug199923,dc=com
objectClass: top
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
sn: I18n
uid: I18n
userPassword: I18n
seeAlso: CN=Lu\C4\8Di\C4\87, dc=bug199923,dc=com

If the value in the filter is made from real characters, it returns the expected entry:
ldapsearch -b "CN=Lu\C4\8Di\C4\87, dc=bug199923,dc=com" -e 'seeAlso=CN=Lučić,dc=bug199923,dc=com' seeAlso
dn: CN=Lučić,dc=bug199923,dc=com
seeAlso: CN=Lučić,dc=bug199923,dc=com

On the other hand, if it contains the escaped representation as follows, it returns none:
ldapsearch -1 -h kiki.usersys.redhat.com -p 10389 -D 'cn=directory manager' -w Secret123 -b "CN=Lu\C4\8Di\C4\87, dc=bug199923,dc=com" -e 'seeAlso=CN=Luči\\C4\\87, dc=bug199923,dc=com'

It's a test problem.  Not a bug...
