DESCRIPTION
ldapcompare
is a shell-accessible interface to the
ldap_compare(3)
library call.
ldapcompare
opens a connection to an LDAP server, binds, and performs a compare
using specified parameters. The DN should be a distinguished
name in the directory. Attr should be a known attribute. If
followed by one colon, the assertion value should be provided
as a string. If followed by two colons, the base64 encoding of the
value is provided. The result code of the compare is provided as
the exit code and, unless ran with -z, the program prints
TRUE, FALSE, or UNDEFINED on standard output.
OPTIONS
-n
Show what would be done, but don't actually perform the compare. Useful for
debugging in conjunction with -v.
-v
Run in verbose mode, with many diagnostics written to standard output.
-z
Run in quiet mode, no output is written. You must check the return
status. Useful in shell scripts.
-M[M]
Enable manage DSA IT control.
-MM
makes control critical.
I -d debuglevel
Set the LDAP debugging level to debuglevel.
ldapcompare
must be compiled with LDAP_DEBUG defined for this option to have any effect.
-x
Use simple authentication instead of SASL.
I -D binddn
Use the Distinguished Name binddn to bind to the LDAP directory.
-W
Prompt for simple authentication.
This is used instead of specifying the password on the command line.
I -w passwd
Use passwd as the password for simple authentication.
I -y passwdfile
Use complete contents of passwdfile as the password for
simple authentication.
I -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.
I -h ldaphost
Specify an alternate host on which the ldap server is running.
Deprecated in favor of -H.
I -p ldapport
Specify an alternate TCP port where the ldap server is listening.
Deprecated in favor of -H.
I -P 2|3
Specify the LDAP protocol version to use.
I -O security-properties
Specify SASL security properties.
-I
Enable SASL Interactive mode. Always prompt. Default is to prompt
only as needed.
-Q
Enable SASL Quiet mode. Never prompt.
I -U authcid
Specify the authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the ID
depends on the actual SASL mechanism used.
I -R realm
Specify the realm of authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the realm
depends on the actual SASL mechanism used.
I -X authzid
Specify the requested authorization ID for SASL bind.
authzid
must be one of the following formats:
dn:\c
<distinguished name>
or
u:\c
<username>
I -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\c
, the command will require the operation to be successful.
EXAMPLES
ldapcompare "uid=babs,dc=example,dc=com" sn:Jensen
ldapcompare "uid=babs,dc=example,dc=com" sn::SmVuc2Vu
are all equivalent.
LIMITATIONS
Requiring the value be passed on the command line is limiting
and introduces some security concerns. The command should support
a mechanism to specify the location (file name or URL) to read
the value from.
