LDAPWHOAMI(1) | LDAPWHOAMI(1) |
ldapwhoami opens a connection to an LDAP server, binds, and performs a whoami operation.
-n | Show what would be done, but don't actually perform the whoami operation. Useful for debugging in conjunction with -v. |
-v | Run in verbose mode, with many diagnostics written to standard output. |
-d debuglevel | Set the LDAP debugging level to debuglevel. ldapwhoami must be compiled with LDAP_DEBUG defined for this option to have any effect. |
-x | Use simple authentication instead of SASL. |
-D binddn | Use the Distinguished Name binddn to bind to the LDAP directory. For SASL binds, the server is expected to ignore this value. |
-W | Prompt for simple authentication. This is used instead of specifying the password on the command line. |
-w passwd | Use passwd as the password for simple authentication. |
-y passwdfile | Use complete contents of passwdfile as the password for simple authentication. |
-H ldapuri | Specify URI(s) referring to the ldap server(s); only the protocol/host/port fields are allowed; a list of URI, separated by whitespace or commas is expected. |
-h ldaphost | Specify an alternate host on which the ldap server is running. Deprecated in favor of -H. |
-p ldapport | Specify an alternate TCP port where the ldap server is listening. Deprecated in favor of -H. |
-O security-properties | Specify SASL security properties. |
-e [!]ext[=extparam] |
-E [!]ext[=extparam] |
Specify general extensions with -e and search extensions with -E. ́ !́ indicates criticality.
General extensions:
Search extensions: |
-I | Enable SASL Interactive mode. Always prompt. Default is to prompt only as needed. |
-Q | Enable SASL Quiet mode. Never prompt. |
-U authcid | Specify the authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the ID depends on the actual SASL mechanism used. |
-R realm | Specify the realm of authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the realm depends on the actual SASL mechanism used. |
-X authzid | Specify the requested authorization ID for SASL bind. authzid must be one of the following formats: dn:<distinguished name> or u:<username> |
-Y mech | Specify the SASL mechanism to be used for authentication. If it's not specified, the program will choose the best mechanism the server knows. |
-Z[Z] | Issue StartTLS (Transport Layer Security) extended operation. If you use -ZZ, the command will require the operation to be successful. |
