What is the default of `-b`?



Hi,

The man page says the following.

`-b` *searchbase*
:   Use *searchbase* as the starting point for the search instead of
the default.

I'm wondering what is the default. If I don't specify -b, I will get
an error. Does anyone know how show all the contents from the
database? Thanks.

$ sudo ldapsearch -Q -LLL -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -b cn=config dn
dn: cn=config

dn: cn=module{0},cn=config

dn: cn=schema,cn=config

dn: cn={0}core,cn=schema,cn=config

dn: cn={1}cosine,cn=schema,cn=config

dn: cn={2}nis,cn=schema,cn=config

dn: cn={3}inetorgperson,cn=schema,cn=config

dn: olcBackend={0}hdb,cn=config

dn: olcDatabase={-1}frontend,cn=config

dn: olcDatabase={0}config,cn=config

dn: olcDatabase={1}hdb,cn=config

$ sudo ldapsearch -Q -LLL -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:///  dn
No such object (32)
