I was reading the blog at https://community.ibm.com/community/user/power/blogs/christian-sonnemans1/2023/10/27/enable-ldap-password-authentication-for-hmc-users
Before configuring our HMC I thought I'd try some ldapsearch against the Windows AD to see if I had it right. Being an IBM i guy I know that I can fire up STRQSH and enter ldapsearch there. So I thought I'd try it from there. I have used this to search ldap served by Domino. I don't know if our domain setup is a complicating factor. Instead of dekko.com we use dekko-1 as our domain in AD. We have plans to change this but this plan has been on the schedule for quite some time now so I want to go with this for now if I can.
So let's say one of our domain controllers is ussgnt.dekko-1
And one of the users is me
Before I enter STRQSH I get resolution and connection with PING RMTSYS('ussgnt.dekko-1')
So how do I get this to stop listing all the parameters and do it's job?
ldapsearch -x -H 'ussgnt.dekko-1' -D "rob@dekko.com" -W mypassword -b "cn=Users,dc=dekko-1" -s sub "(cn=*)" cn mail sn
