Re: localhost ldapsearch[Scanned]

[Arif Ali <aali@ocf.co.uk>]

eeek sorry about that;

the error message is

ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server (-1)

I have tried the following; from the local machine with no success

ldapsearch -H ldap://localhost/ -w secret -x -b 
ou=Users,ou=OxObjects,dc=ocf,dc=co,dc=uk -D dc=ocf,dc=co,dc=uk uid=* 
uidNumber
ldapsearch -H ldap://127.0.0.1/ -w secret -x -b 
ou=Users,ou=OxObjects,dc=ocf,dc=co,dc=uk -D dc=ocf,dc=co,dc=uk uid=* 
uidNumber
ldapsearch -H ldap://mailserver-linux/ -w secret -x -b 
ou=Users,ou=OxObjects,dc=ocf,dc=co,dc=uk -D dc=ocf,dc=co,dc=uk uid=* 
uidNumber
ldapsearch -H ldap://195.62.2.26/ -w secret -x -b 
ou=Users,ou=OxObjects,dc=ocf,dc=co,dc=uk -D dc=ocf,dc=co,dc=uk uid=* 
uidNumber

if I do the following

ldapsearch -H localhost -w secret -x -b 
ou=Users,ou=OxObjects,dc=ocf,dc=co,dc=uk -D dc=ocf,dc=co,dc=uk uid=* 
uidNumber

I get

Could not create LDAP session handle (3): Time limit exceeded
