LDAP Users and Groups

For email addresses, use only those characters permitted in RFC 17.000 (ftp://ds.internic.net/rfc/rfc17.000.txt). User ID and password information must be stored in ASCII.

To make sure you enter characters in the correct format for users and groups, use a UTF-8 form-capable client to input 8 bit or multi-byte data.
