Hello list,
My filter on ldapsearch is not working as expected but showing all the
records.
If I simply do an search on object class like below it shows all records
belong to that object
````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
ldapsearch -h 127.0.0.1 -b "ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" -x
"objectclass=inetOrgPerson" -D "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" -W
Enter LDAP Password:
# extended LDIF

# LDAPv3
# base <ou=people,dc=example,dc=com> with scope subtree
# filter: objectclass=inetOrgPerson
# requesting: ALL

# test1, people, example.com
dn: cn=test1,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
cn: test1

Now to redifine the filter. Want to result where gid=rjsmith
` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
ldapsearch -h 127.0.0.1 -b "ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" -x
"objectclass=inetOrgPerson" uid=rjsmith -D
"cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" -W
Enter LDAP Password:
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <ou=people,dc=example,dc=com> with scope subtree
# filter: objectclass=inetOrgPerson
# requesting: uid=rjsmith
#
# test1, people, example.com
dn: cn=test1,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
# test2, people, example.com
dn: cn=test2,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success
# numResponses: 3
# numEntries: 2
` ` ` ` ` `
Again both the results are showing. something wrong in my filter ?
Please enlighten me.
Thanks
