SYNOPSIS

       ldapwhoami  [-n]  [-v] [-z] [-d debuglevel] [-D binddn] [-W] [-w passwd] [-y passwdfile] [-H ldapuri] [-h ldaphost] [-p ldapport] [-O secu-

DESCRIPTION

       ldapwhoami implements the LDAP "Who Am I?" extended operation.

       ldapwhoami opens a connection to an LDAP server, binds, and performs a whoami operation.

OPTIONS

       -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.  ldapcompare 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.

       -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).

       -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.

       -P 2|3 Specify the LDAP protocol version to use.

       -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.

       -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 success-
	      ful.

EXAMPLE

	   ldapwhoami -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" -W
