These are the exact steps to duplicate the problem:

1. Using the Novell Client, login as user jimsc.novell

2. Verify that you can do an exact search on the network address

ldapsearch -b o=novell -D cn=admin,o=novell -w novell -Z -h 151.155.152.4
(|("networkaddress=1#\89\41\D4\A8")("networaddress=9#\00\00\89\41\D4\A8")) dn

(Just to state the obvious, substitute your IP address hex values for the ones

above.)

3. Logout jimsc.novell.

4. Even though network address has been flagged non-present, you can still do

an exact search on it.  The search in #2 should still return cn=jimsc,o=novell.

Added networkaddress=9#\00\00\89\41\D4\A8
The \00\00 is the port number
