-W not working anymore
I haven't touched my ldap project for a while but finally got back to it today.
In the past I used -W to be prompted for a password but it's not working
anymore. Am I crazy or am I just doing something wrong. I was using 1.2.3 but
upgraded to 1.2.6 to make sure that wasn't the problem. The man page says -W
prompts for the password.
bash-2.01$ ldapsearch -W -D 'cn=root, o=Tivoli Systems' 'cn=Jason Bodnar'
ldapsearch: illegal option -- W
usage: ldapsearch [options] filter [attributes...]
where:
filter RFC-1558 compliant LDAP search filter
attributes whitespace-separated list of attributes to retrieve
(if no attribute list is given, all are retrieved)
options:
-n show what would be done but don't actually search
-v run in verbose mode (diagnostics to standard output)
-t write values to files in /tmp
-u include User Friendly entry names in the output
-A retrieve attribute names only (no values)
-B do not suppress printing of non-ASCII values
-L print entries in LDIF format (-B is implied)
-R do not automatically follow referrals
-d level set LDAP debugging level to `level'
-F sep print `sep' instead of `=' between attribute names and values
-S attr sort the results by attribute `attr'
-f file perform sequence of searches listed in `file'

-a deref one of never, always, search, or find (alias dereferencing)

-z size lim size limit (in entries) for search
-D binddn bind dn
