Using Netiq's eDirectory system we have numerous roles that contain AD Groups. I do not know how this is set up exactly, but the raw input value for the role (nrfEntitlementRef) looks like this:
cn=C10_AD_GroupMembership,cn=C10_AD2008,cn=DriverSet,ou=RESOURCES,o=SYSTEM#0#<ref>
<id/>
<param>GG_PROJECT_MBX_IAM_PROJECT</param>
</ref>
Now when I use Apache Directory Studio (software used to browse the eDirectory) and export this into an XML to import it later it converts it to base64, that's fine I can work with that. Recently I've been trying to connect to the eDirectory with Powershell, trying to get the same output resulted in the following:

When I use a .getType() on the parameter it returns:
ResultPropertyValueCollection
It has a length of 141 and looks to be some sort of ASCII-esque encoding but I don't know how I would be able to properly decode it for automation.
It was actually ASCII, the program I was using to convert it had an error in it which produced unknown characters.
