Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers Ldapsearch using variable will not work Post 302983897 by RudiC on Tuesday 18th of October 2016 10:40:21 AM

Did you make sure the "GroupsTest1.txt" is a true *nix file, NOT an MS file with DOS line terminators <CR> (0x0d, \r, <carriage return>)? How did you create it?
If assigning adgroup manually on the command line, would the ldapsearch command run correctly?
