NAME ldapexop - issue LDAP extended operations

SYNOPSIS ldapexop [-V[V]] [-d debuglevel] [-n] [-v] [-f file] [-x] [-D binddn] [-W] [-w passwd] [-y passwdfile] [-H URI] [-e [!]ext[=extparam]] [-o opt[=optparam]] [-O security-properties] [-I] [-Q] [-N] [-U authcid] [-R realm] [-X authzid] [-Y mech] [-Z[Z]] {oid | oid:data | oid::b64data | whoami | cancel cancel-id | refresh DN [ttl]}

DESCRIPTION ldapexop issues the LDAP extended operation specified by oid or one of the special keywords whoami, cancel, or refresh.
Additional data for the extended operation can be passed to the server using data or base-64 encoded as b64data in the case of oid, or using the additional parameters in the case of the specially named extended operations above.
Please note that ldapexop behaves differently for the same extended operation when it was given as an OID or as a specially named operation:
Calling ldapexop with the OID of the whoami (RFC 4532) extended operation
ldapexop [<options>] 1.3.6.1.4.1.4203.1.11.3
yields
# extended operation response data:: <base64 encoded response data>
while calling it with the keyword whoami
ldapexop [<options>] whoami
results in
dn:<client's identity>



OPTIONS -V[V] Print version info. If-VV is given, only the version information is printed.
-d debuglevel Set the LDAP debugging level to debuglevel.
-n Show what would be done but don't actually do it. Useful for
-x Use simple authentication instead of SASL.
-D binddn Use the Distinguished Name binddn to bind to the LDAP directory.
-W Prompt for simple authentication. This is used instead of specifying the password on the command line.
-w passwd Use passwd as the password for simple authentication.
-y passwdfile Use complete contents of passwdfile as the password for simple authentication.
-H URI Specify URI(s) referring to the ldap server(s); only the protocol/host/port fields are allowed; a list of URI, separated by whitespace or commas is expected.
-e [!]ext[=extparam] Specify general extensions. '!' indicates criticality. [!]assert=<filter> (an RFC 4515 Filter) !authzid=<authzid> ("dn:<dn>" or "u:<user>") [!]bauthzid (RFC 3829 authzid control) [!]chaining[=<resolve>[/<cont>]] [!]manageDSAit [!]noop ppolicy [!]postread[=<attrs>] (a comma-separated attribute list) [!]preread[=<attrs>] (a comma-separated attribute list) [!]relax sessiontracking[=<username>] abandon,cancel,ignore (SIGINT sends abandon/cancel, or ignores response; if critical, doesn't wait for SIGINT. not really controls)
-o opt[=optparam]
Specify any ldap.conf(5) option or one of the following: nettimeout=<timeout> (in seconds, or "none" or "max") ldif_wrap=<width> (in columns, or "no" for no wrapping)

-O security-properties Specify SASL security properties.
-I Enable SASL Interactive mode. Always prompt. Default is to prompt only as needed.
-Q Enable SASL Quiet mode. Never prompt.
-N Do not use reverse DNS to canonicalize SASL host name.
-U authcid Specify the authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the ID depends on the actual SASL mechanism used.
-R realm
-Y mech Specify the SASL mechanism to be used for authentication. Without this option, the program will choose the best mechanism the server knows.
-Z[Z] Issue StartTLS (Transport Layer Security) extended operation. Giving it twice (-ZZ) will require the operation to be successful.

DIAGNOSTICS Exit status is zero if no errors occur. Errors result in a non-zero exit status and a diagnostic message being written to standard error.
