You can't use arbitrary attributes when specifying a search base. You need to
do something like:
ldapsearch -s sub -b o=company,c=es name=John
You can modify the base by specifying a node below the root. For example, if
o=company,c=ES branches into ou=persona then you can do:
ldapsearch -s sub -b ou=persona,c=es name=John
