ldapsearch -h localhost -p 389 -b "cn=users,dc=example" -s sub "(uid=Smith, J\5coh=n)"
Here in the filter (uid: Smith, J\oh=n), ',' and '=' are normal chars and only '\' is special and hence must be encoded as '\5c'
The search should succeed and bring result:
dn: uid=Smith\, J\\oh\=n,cn=users,dc=example
objectclass: top
objectclass: person
objectclass: organizationalPerson
objectclass: inetOrgPerson
givenName: J\oh=n
sn: Smith
uid: Smith, J\oh=n
