Ok.

Testing seems to be fine but I noticed that all examples show clear text
with nsLIData where I have some encoded (and hence not readable by humans)
datablok.

The old definition (for OpenLDAP 1.2) used 'bin' and the new (OpenLDAP
2.x) definition uses  1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.5 for this data.

Willit be safe remove the data and use another type instead? Or is there
another reason for apparently different content?

I also noted that netscape seems to store more info into OpenLDAP 1.2 then
it does in OpenLDAP 2.x

But this may be a browser specific issue as I used one browser under Linux
and one under win98. I'll investigate some more.
