[CentOS] ldapsearch -f file doesn't work

2009-12-02 Thread Sergio Belkin
Hi,

Firstly, system info:

Linux mysystem 2.6.18-53.1.4.el5 #1 SMP Fri Nov 30 00:45:55 EST 2007
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


I am running ldap on Centos with packages openldap-2.3.27-8.el5_2.4 y
openldap-2.3.27-8.el5_2.4
I'd want to perform a query that return one attribute. So I did
something as follows:


ldapsearch -W  -f qbis.ldif -D cn=Manager,dc=palermo,dc=edu -b
ou=people,dc=mydomain,dc=edu -x  legajo

(Where legajo is the filter)

There is no problem with filter but wih the file qbis.ldif which contains:


dn: uid=jdoe,ou=people,dc=mydomain,dc=edu


Of course I could perform that query with no need of one file, but I
need to get legajo from around 800 users so it would be nice to be
able to use -f file. I cannot do something like a loop for because
it would ask me every time the Manager password.

Am I doing something wrong or is a ldap bug?

Thanks in advance!

Ouch, I forget to comment what is the problem, well the problem is
that query returns all database entries (onlt it works the filter) but
doesn't honor -f file at all. So that was my question, what's wrong
with that option?

Thanks in advance again :)

I don't know because I haven't figured out how the 'f' option would be
useful to me but I think the way you are trying to do it is clunky...

#!/bin/sh
#
# usage - myldap-search user
#
LDAP_PASSWD=whatever
BINDDN=cn=Manager,dc=palermo,dc=edu
BASEDN=ou=people,dc=mydomain,dc=edu
for i in `cat users.txt` do;
USER_PASSWD = ldapsearch -x\
   -w $LDAP_PASSWORD \
   -D $BINDDN \
   -b uid=$0,$BASEDN \
   legajo
done

or to do a whole shot of users

#!/bin/sh
#
# input file of users = users.txt
#
LDAP_PASSWD=whatever
BINDDN=cn=Manager,dc=palermo,dc=edu
BASEDN=ou=people,dc=mydomain,dc=edu
for i in `cat users.txt` do;
 USER_PASSWD = ldapsearch -x\
   -w $LDAP_PASSWORD \
   -D $BINDDN \
   -b $BASEDN \
   legajo
  echo $i \t $USER_PASSWD  /tmp/ldap-output.txt
done

Something like that should do it - untested
