My company had an example of a script that performs a search against a secure port.



ldapsearch -h $host -p $port -P /$var/$var/alias/slapd-cert8.db -Z -s base -b "" "objectclass apemdsuffix | grep netscapemdsuffix`;



I'm trying to do a simple search of an ldap database, finding anything with an objectclass of top. I know the root of the database, as well as the port/host etc. But after looking around, can't find much to actually make a search work.
I've tried varitions of the following command(all $ signs are variable name instead of real name), but still either get a bind error, or some other error. Any idea on what else is needed to make this statement work properly, or am I actually doing the search wrong?



ldapsearch -h ldaps://$serverName:$securePort# -p $unsecurePort -P /$var/$var/alias/slapd-cert8.db -Z -D cn=$bindingmanager -j /password/file -D o=com objectclass=top

  • Can you edit and check the formatting? I think at least some of those backslashes shouldn't be there. Four-space indent for a code block, see the small ? sign at the corner of the edit toolbar
