ldapwhoami implements the LDAP "Who Am I?" extended operation.
ldapwhoami opens a connection to an LDAP server, binds, and performs a whoami operation.
-V[V]
Print version info. If -VV is given, only the version information is printed.
-ddebuglevel
Set the LDAP debugging level to debuglevel. ldapwhoami must be compiled with LDAP_DEBUG defined for this option to have any effect.
-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.
-x
Use simple authentication instead of SASL.
-Dbinddn
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.
-wpasswd
Use passwd as the password for simple authentication.
-ypasswdfile
Use complete contents of passwdfile as the password for simple authentication.
-Hldapuri
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.
-hldaphost
Specify an alternate host on which the ldap server is running. Deprecated in favor of -H.
-pldapport
Specify an alternate TCP port where the ldap server is listening. Deprecated in favor of -H.
-e[!]ext[=extparam]
-E[!]ext[=extparam]
Specify general extensions with -e and whoami extensions with -E. \'!\' indicates criticality.
General extensions:
[!]assert=<filter> (an RFC 4515 Filter) !authzid=<authzid> ("dn:<dn>" or "u:<user>") [!]bauthzid (RFC 3829 authzid control) [!]chaining[=<resolve>[/<cont>]] [!]manageDSAit [!]noop ppolicy [!]postread[=<attrs>] (a comma-separated attribute list) [!]preread[=<attrs>] (a comma-separated attribute list) [!]relax sessiontracking abandon,cancel,ignore (SIGINT sends abandon/cancel, or ignores response; if critical, doesn't wait for SIGINT. not really controls)
WhoAmI extensions:
(none)
-oopt[=optparam]
Specify general options.
General options:
nettimeout=<timeout> (in seconds, or "none" or "max") ldif-wrap=<width> (in columns, or "no" for no wrapping)
-Osecurity-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.
-N
Do not use reverse DNS to canonicalize SASL host name.
-Uauthcid
Specify the authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the ID depends on the actual SASL mechanism used.
-Rrealm
Specify the realm of authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the realm depends on the actual SASL mechanism used.
-Xauthzid
Specify the requested authorization ID for SASL bind. authzid must be one of the following formats: dn:<distinguished name> or u:<username>
-Ymech
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.
