Specifying the general search base and scope

The LDAP base is the distinguished name of the LDAP tree in which user information is stored. All lookup requests sent to the LDAP server will be limited to the search base and scope specified by the ldap.base option value, unless further restricted by a more specific base and scope lookup value, such as ldap.base.passwd, ldap.base.group, or ldap.base.netgroup.

Step

  1. Enter the following command: options ldap.base name

    name specifies the base distinguished name. Use quotes around names with embedded spaces.

Example

options ldap.base "o=examplecompany,c=us"
