I was having the same problem a few moths ago, so I wrote
a module for my private use and use in my company.
It provides 4 functions
* quoteFilterValue(@)
* unquoteFilterValue(@)
* quoteDNValue(@)
* unquoteDNValue(@)
The functions with weilter in their names operate on strings
that are going to be pattern parts of LDAP filters,
while the functions with DN in their name operate
on strings that are to become RDN values.
I do not exactly know if theay are correct, but in our company
we use them regularly.
Maybe they can become a part of a future Net::LDAP::Util ;-))
(the first version of Net::LDAP::extraTools contained routines
to split DN, but now that these are in Net::LDAP::Util, I cut them out.
Maybe I can gt rid of this extraTools module ;-)
Yours
Peter
