ldapexop - issue LDAP extended operations

OpenLDAPSoftware  is  developed  and  maintained  by  The  OpenLDAP Project <http://www.openldap.org/>.
       OpenLDAPSoftware is derived from the University of Michigan LDAP 3.3 Release.

                                                                                                     LDAPEXOP(1)

       This manual page was written by Peter Marschall based on ldapexop's usage message and a  few  tests  with
       ldapexop.  Do not expect it to be complete or absolutely correct.

       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>

       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.

-V[V]  Print version info.  If-VV is given, only the version information is printed.

       -ddebuglevel
              Set the LDAP debugging level to debuglevel.

       -n     Show what would be done but don't actually do it.  Useful for debugging in conjunction with -v.

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

       -ffile
              Read operations from file.

       -x     Use simple authentication instead of SASL.

       -Dbinddn
              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.

       -wpasswd
              Use passwd as the password for simple authentication.

       -ypasswdfile
              Use complete contents of passwdfile as the password for simple authentication.

       -HURI 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)

       -oopt[=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)

       -Osecurity-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.

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

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

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