HMC

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

Hi Robert
