LDAPWHOAMI(1)
NAME
  ldapwhoami - LDAP who am i? tool

SYNOPSIS
  ldapwhoami [-n] [-v] [-z] [-d debuglevel] [-D binddn] [-W] [-w passwd]
  [-y passwdfile] [-H ldapuri] [-h ldaphost] [-p ldapport] [-O security-
  properties] [-I] [-Q] [-U authcid] [-R realm] [-x] [-X authzid] [-Y mech]
  [-Z[Z]]

DESCRIPTION
  ldapwhoami implements the LDAP "Who Am I?" extended operation.

  ldapwhoami opens a connection to an LDAP server, binds, and performs a
  whoami operation.

OPTIONS
  -n   Show what would be done, but don't actually perform the whoami
       operation.  Useful for debugging in conjunction with -v.

  -v   Run in verbose mode, with many diagnostics written to standard output.

  -d debuglevel
       Set the LDAP debugging level to debuglevel.  ldapcompare must be
       compiled with LDAP_DEBUG defined for this option to have any effect.

  -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 ldapuri
       Specify URI(s) referring to the ldap server(s).

  -h ldaphost
       Specify an alternate host on which the ldap server is running.
       Deprecated in favor of -H.

  -p ldapport
       Specify an alternate TCP port where the ldap server is listening.
       Deprecated in favor of -H.

  -P 2|3
       Specify the LDAP protocol version to use.

  -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.

  -U authcid
       Specify the authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the ID
       depends on the actual SASL mechanism used.

  -R realm
       Specify the realm of authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the
       realm depends on the actual SASL mechanism used.

  -X authzid
       Specify the requested authorization ID for SASL bind.  authzid must be
       one of the following formats: dn:<distinguished name> or u:<username>

  -Y mech
       Specify the SASL mechanism to be used for authentication. If it's not
       specified, the program will choose the best mechanism the server
       knows.

  -Z[Z]
       Issue StartTLS (Transport Layer Security) extended operation. If you
       use -ZZ, the command will require the operation to be successful.

EXAMPLE
      ldapwhoami -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" -W
