NAME

       ldaplist - search and list naming information from an LDAP directory using the configured profile

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/bin/ldaplist [-dlv] [database  [key]...]

       /usr/bin/ldaplist -h

DESCRIPTION

       The  ldaplist utility searches for and lists the naming information from the LDAP directory service defined in the LDAP configuration files
       generated by ldapclient(1M) during the client initialization phase. The Solaris LDAP client must be set up in order to use this utility.

       The database is either a container name or a database name as defined in nsswitch.conf(4). A container is a non-leaf entry in the Directory
       Information  Tree  (DIT)  that contains naming service information. The container name is the LDAP Relative Distinguished Name (RDN) of the
       container relative to the defaultSearchBase as defined in the configuration files. For example, for a container named ou=people, the  data-
       base  name is the database specified in nsswitch.conf. This database is mapped to a container, for example, passwd maps to ou=people. If an
       invalid database is specified, it will be mapped to a generic container, for example, nisMapName=name).

       The key is the attribute value to be searched in the database. You can specify more than one key to be searched in the same  database.  The
       key  can be specified in either of two forms: attribute=value or value. In the first case, ldaplist passes the search key to the server. In
       the latter case, an attribute is assigned depending on how the database is specified. If the database is a container name,  then  the  "cn"
       attribute  type is used. If the database is a valid database name as defined in the nsswitch.conf, then a predefined attribute type is used
       (see table below). If the database is an invalid database name, then cn is used as the attribute type.

       The ldaplist utility relies on the Schema defined in the RFC 2307bis, currently an IETF draft. The data stored on the LDAP server  must  be
       stored  based  on  this  Schema,  unless  the profile contains schema mapping definitions. For more information on schema mapping see ldap-
       client(1M). The following table lists the default mapping from the database names  to  the  container,  the  LDAP  object  class,  and  the
       attribute type used if not defined in the key.

       Database     Object Class     Attribute Type    Container

       aliases      mailGroup        cn                ou=Aliases

       rpc          oncRpc           cn                ou=Rpc
       services     ipService        cn                ou=Services
       printers     printerService   printer-uri       ou=printers
       auth_attr    SolarisAuthAttr  nameT             ou=SolarisAuthAttr
       prof_attr    SolarisProfAttr  nameT             ou=SolarisProfAttr
       exec_attr    SolarisExecAttr  nameT             ou=SolarisProfAttr
       user_attr    SolarisUserAttr  uidT              ou=people
       audit_user   SolarisAuditUser uidT              ou=people

         o  For the automount database, auto_*, in the container column, represents auto_home, auto_direct, ...

         o  For  the  publickey  database, if the key starts with a digit, it will be interpreted as an uid number.  If the key starts with a non-
            digit, it will be interpreted as a host name.

       The ldaplist utility supports substring search by using the wildcard "*" in the key. For example, "my*" will match any strings that  starts
       with "my". In some shell environments, keys containing the wildcard may need to be quoted.

       If the key is not specified, all the containers in the current search baseDN will be listed.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -d       Lists the attributes for the specified database, rather than the entries. By default, the entries are listed.

       -h       Lists the database mapping.

       -l       Lists  all  the  attributes for each entry matching the search criteria. By default, ldaplist lists only the Distinguished Name of
                the entries found.

       -v       Sets verbose mode. The ldaplist utility will also print the filter used to search for the entry. The filter will be prefixed  with
                "+++".

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: Listing All Entries in the Hosts Database

       example% ldaplist hosts

       Example 2: Listing All Entries in a Non-Standard Database ou=new

       example% ldaplist ou=new

       Example 3: Finding "user1" in the passwd Database

       example% ldaplist passwd user1

       Example 4: Finding the Entry With Service Port of 4045 in the services Database

       example% ldaplist services ipServicePort=4045

       Example 5: Finding All Users With Username Starting with new in the passwd Database

       example% ldaplist passwd 'new*'

       Example 6: Listing the Attributes for the hosts Database

       example% ldaplist -d hosts

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0        Successfully matched some entries.

       1        Successfully searched the table and no matches were found.

       2        An error occurred. An error message is output.
