LdapGetAttrValue returns a value of the attribute specified in attrName. An attribute can have several values, and which one is returned depends on the index specified in valueIdx. Note that the indexing is 0 based, i.e. if the specified index is 0, the first value of the attribute is returned.

An empty string is returned if the search fails.
