Well, not so simple... 
I tried 
ldbedit -e vim -H /usr/local/samba/private/sam.ldb --cross-ncs -b
"DC=91,DC=41.168.192.in-addr.arpa,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=home,DC=serbe,DC=ch"

and it looked like this, i.e. the binary data are a bit cumbersome.

Ah yes, sorry, try:

ldbedit -e nano -H /var/lib/samba/private/sam.ldb --show-binary 
--cross-ncs -b 
"DC=1.168.192.in-addr.arpa,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=samdom,DC=com"
"(DC=21)"

OK, this is a second solution to the issue. 
In this special case I found the graphical approach however more appealing 
then working on the command line, as navigating to the correct ldb entry 
IMHO is much easier. But anyway, once You know what to look for, it becomes 
easy... 

Thank You all. 

As typos happen the information might really apply for being written in
the wiki. I used an uncomfortable keyboard down in the basement...
