<xsl:apply-templates select="dsml:attr[@name='cn']/

I'm not sure what you want to do ...
Do you want to select a <dsml:value> node whose
Organization is "CI-1", for example?

<xsl:apply-templates select="dsml:attr[@name='userClass']/
  dsml:value[contains(., 'Organization: CI-1')]" />

Or do you want a template that matches any <dsml:value>
and extracts the field/value pairs like
('Organization', 'CI-1')
('Employer', 'SASCIS') etc.
?
