Script to check if user can bind, then output to file
Hi,

I've been trying to find the answer with no luck. I'm hoping someone can help me. Here's what I need to do:

Run a KSH script that will check:

1. Server (Client) Type (AIX 5.3, 6.1, SUSE, and HP-UX are the possibilities).
2. LDAP.cfg is configured correctly and the ldap client service is running. The way to tell is to see if a user with an account on the LDAP directory can bind from the Server (Client) side. If so, then output to yes.xml.....if no, then output to no.xml. Either way the server name and OS type need to be in the file, separated by commas.

That's it! know the AIX command to check ldap is lsldap -a passwd (ldap_user_id). That's all I know as far as what to do here. I don't need any ldap commands for the other OS types, they are simimar and I can handle that. I just don't know how to collect, validate and output info in a script. Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks in advance,

D

       x2goclient - Client application to launch server-side X2Go sessions.

SYNOPSIS

       x2goclient  <options>

DESCRIPTION

       x2goclient is a GUI application for launching server-side X2Go sessions.

OPTIONS

       x2goclient has the following options:

       --help-pack
	      Show available pack methods and exit.

       --no-menu
	      Hide menu-/toolbar (default: false).

       --client-ssh-port
	      Local ssh port (for filesystem export, default: 22).

       --user Pre-selection of user at client startup (LDAP mode).

PROFILING SESSIONS GLOBALLY

       You can pre-profile sessions globally using the following options. They will override the options in the session profiles.

       --command
	      Default command for session startup.

       --sessionid
	      Pre-selection of session ID at client startup.

       --ssh-port

       --link Set default link type (modem,isdn,adsl,wan or lan, default: adsl).

       --pack Set default pack method (default: '16m-jpeg').

       --quality
	      Set default image quality(0-9, default: 9).

       --set-kbd

       --sound-system
	      Which soundsystem to use: arts, esd, pulse (default: arts).

THIN CLIENT OPTIONS

       The following command line options are primarily interesting if x2goclient is used as a login manager on X2Go thin clients.

       --session=<session-profile-name>
	      Pre-selection of session at client startup.

       --no-session-edit
	      Disable session editing.

       --pgp-card
	      Use openPGP Card authentication (default: false).

       --external-login=<smartcard-logins>
	      Authenticate via SMART card, path to login notification file.

       --add-to-known-hosts
	      Add DSA/RSA host key fingerprint to .ssh/known_hosts in case of "authenticity of server can't be established".

       --read-exports-from
	      Specifies a directory where some external mechanism (e.g. script) can notify x2goclient on new block devices (CD/DVDs, USB sticks,
	      etc.).

LDAP OPTIONS

       In case you want to provide x2goclient session profiles from LDAP use the following options:

       --ldap Start with LDAP support (disabled by default).

	      Base DN to search in LDAP.

       --ldap-server

       --ldap-port1
	      Failover LDAP Server portnumber (default: 389).

       --ldap-server2
