Searching LDAP via CLI
Posted by: admin : Category: Memos
Just a reminder to myself on how to search an LDAP directory via CLI.
The CN hierarchy is likely to be different with your environment.
ldapsearch -b dc=users,dc=acme,dc=net -w PASSWORD -D cn=BINDUSER,dc=users,dc=acme,dc=net '(&(uid=SEARCHSTRING))'
‘ldapsearch’ is part of openldap.
