Re: Entry not listed when requesting all entries with ldapsearch

[Vince Rafale <vince.rafale@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Is that normal that "dc=example,dc=com" and "dc=someone,dc=com" are 
mixed in your requests/results?!
Try this then

ldapsearch -x  -b "ou=alias,ou=postfix,dc=someone,dc=com" | grep "someone"

Regards,

Vince
