Full Discussion: LDAP Query - host allowed option

Network LDAP Query - host allowed option
I have an in interesting dilemna that I am trying to address. I have some ldap queries that I use to retrieve user information to perform access validations on a quarterly/annual basis. I can successfully pull the local users, and I can use ldapsearch to pull back all the users from the DN as well. However, my problem is, I need to narrow down this search so that I can report on LDAP users who have access to the local server and not just return every user in the DN on every server so that I can then truly validate whether people need to retain access to the specific hosts they have access to. I have so far been unable to come up with (or find an example of) a proper command that returns a "host allowed" value, or just returns a list of users with access to the host that I am running the ldap search on. Has anyone run across this before and have a viable option of how to report only LDAP users with access to the server on which the query is running? I have to run this on hundreds of servers, so getting this right is pretty critical to me.
