Nested quotes,  the shell eats the outer quotes.
go@linux-m3mt:~> Defaults write NSGlobalDomain LDAPInitialBindDN
'"cn=fred,dc=example,dc=com"'
ogo@linux-m3mt:~> Defaults read NSGlobalDomain LDAPInitialBindDN 
cn=fred,dc=example,dc=com

And it should be "Defaults write NSGlobalDomain" not "Defaults write
Defaults"; the first parameter after write is the application domain and
NSGlobalDomain is the domain shared by all the applications.  First they
load NSGlobalDomain then they overlay their own domain (for example
'ogo-xmlrpcd-1.1').

I think it is covered in WMOGAG (pg. 21 if your looking at version
preM).
