Thanks for the answer, however the -h <URI/URL> appears to be a server (slapd) option. I'm looking for the LDAP client side which uses OpenLDAP libldap and liblber libraries.
You may wish to more carefully read my response (Hint: -h and -H are not the same thing). You may also wish to refer to the man pages for client utilities such as ldapsearch, (which use the LDAP client side API).
