You will need to browse AD and find the correct OU and DC plus the fields you are interested most organisations will populate OU and different fields so this is usually the biggest hurdle

Here is an example of searching for mail address and displaying some info:

Code:

MAIL="auser@acme.com"
ldapsearch -h mydchost.acme.local -b 'OU=Acme Group,DC=acme,DC=local' -D 'ACME\sudo' -W "(&(objectclass=*)(mail=$MAIL))" cn mail department phone

You can try running without specifying any fields and try an pick out what you are interested in:

Code:

ldapsearch -h mydchost.acme.local -b 'OU=Acme Group,DC=acme,DC=local' -D 'ACME\sudo' -W "(&(objectclass=*)(mail=$MAIL))"

NAME

       ldap_modrdn, ldap_modrdn_s, ldap_modrdn2, ldap_modrdn2_s - Perform an LDAP modify RDN operation

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ldap.h>

       int ldap_modrdn(ld, dn, newrdn)
       LDAP *ld;
       char *dn, *newrdn;

       int ldap_modrdn_s(ld, dn, newrdn)
       LDAP *ld;
       char *dn, *newrdn;

       int ldap_modrdn2(ld, dn, newrdn, deleteoldrdn)
       LDAP *ld;
       char *dn, *newrdn;
       int deleteoldrdn;

       int ldap_modrdn2_s(ld, dn, newrdn, deleteoldrdn)
       LDAP *ld;
       char *dn, *newrdn;
       int deleteoldrdn;

DESCRIPTION

       The  ldap_modrdn()  and ldap_modrdn_s() routines perform an LDAP modify RDN operation.  They both take dn, the DN of the entry whose RDN is
       to be changed, and newrdn, the new RDN to give the entry.  The old RDN of the entry is never kept as an attribute of the entry.	 ldap_mod-
       rdn()  is  asynchronous,  returning the message id of the operation it initiates.  ldap_modrdn_s() is synchronous, returning the LDAP error
       code indicating the success or failure of the operation.  Use of these routines is deprecated.  Use the versions described below instead.

       The ldap_modrdn2() and ldap_modrdn2_s() routines also perform an LDAP modify RDN operation, taking the same parameters as above.  In  addi-
       tion,  they  both take the deleteoldrdn parameter which is used as a boolean value to indicate whether the old RDN values should be deleted
       from the entry or not.

ERRORS

       The synchronous (_s) versions of these routines return an LDAP error code, either LDAP_SUCCESS or an error if there was trouble.  The asyn-
       chronous versions return -1 in case of trouble, setting the ld_errno field of ld.  See ldap_error(3) for more details.
