26.4.3 Using Subject DN to User Attribute Certificate Mapper

When performing an ldapsearch on the baseDN requesting the "userCertificate;binary=*" the user and certificate (as binary/base64 representation: userCertificate;binary:BASE64-BINARY-VALUE) are returned. Example command:

ldapsearch -b <BaseDN of user location> '(userCertificate;binary=*)' dn userCertificate

However when attempting to perform an ldapsearch specifically requesting the usercertificate and exact value, it is NOT returned. Example command:

ldapsearch -b <BaseDN of user location> '(userCertificate;binary=BASE64-BINARY-VALUE)' dn userCertificate
