NAME
ud - interactive LDAP Directory Server query program
SYNOPSIS
ud [-Dv] [-s server]
[-d debug-mask] [-l ldap-debug-mask]
[-f file]
DESCRIPTION
ud is used to interogate a directory
server via the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP).
OPTIONS
- -s server
- Used to specify the name of an LDAP server to which ud
should connect. If this flag is omitted, the value specified in the
ud configuration file is used. If no value is specified in
the configuration file, or the configuration file does not exist,
the name ldap is used. Of course, it is up to the system
administrator to make sure that the name ldap can be
resolved (presumably through the use of a CNAME or A record in the
DNS and the appropriate search path specified in the resolver
config file).
- -d debug-mask
- Sets the ud debug mask to the value specified. Values
for the mask can be dumped by using the -D flag.
- -f file
- Sets the configuration file to the name specified.
- -l ldap-debug-mask
- Sets the LDAP debug mask to the value specified.
- -v
- Turns on verbose output. Also toggable via the ud
verbose command.
- -D
- Prints out a list of valid ud debug masks.
FILES

ud configuration file.

DIAGNOSTICS
ud will try to be nice about error
conditions, and in most cases prints a warm and fuzzy error message
when it encounters a problem. Sometimes the error will be
unexpected, and in these cases, ud uses the ldap_perror()
routine to print an informative diagnostic.
BUGS
Too numerous to mention.
