You can retrieve information about LDAP naming services by using the ldaplist utility. This LDAP utility lists the naming information from the LDAP servers in LDIF format. It can be useful for troubleshooting. See ldaplist(1) for further information.
ldaplist displays its output with a blank line separating records, which is helpful for big multiline records.
Note - The output of ldaplist depends upon the client configuration. For example, if the value of ns_ldap_search is sub rather than one, ldaplist lists all the entries under the current search baseDN.
The following is an example of ldaplist output.
# ldaplist dn: ou=people,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: ou=group,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: ou=rpc,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: ou=protocols,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: ou=networks,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: ou=netgroup,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: ou=aliases,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: ou=hosts,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: ou=services,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: ou=ethers,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: ou=profile,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: automountmap=auto_home,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: automountmap=auto_direct,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: automountmap=auto_master,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com dn: automountmap=auto_shared,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com
To list specific information such as a user's passwd entry, use getent as follows:
# getent passwd user1 user1::30641:10:Joe Q. User:/home/user1:/bin/csh
If you want to list all attributes, use ldaplist with the -l option.
# ldaplist -l passwd user1 dn: uid=user1,ou=People,dc=west,dc=example,dc=com uid: user1 cn: user1 uidNumber: 30641 gidNumber: 10 gecos: Joe Q. User homeDirectory: /home/user1 loginShell: /bin/csh objectClass: top objectClass: shadowAccount objectClass: account objectClass: posixAccount shadowLastChange: 6445
