DESCRIPTION
       ldapwhoami implements the LDAP "Who Am I?" extended operation.

       llddaappwwhhooaammii opens a connection to an LDAP server, binds, and performs  a
       whoami operation.

OOPPTTIIOONNSS
       -nn     Show  what  would be done, but don't actually perform the whoami
              operation.  Useful for debugging in conjunction with -v.

       -vv     Run in verbose mode, with many diagnostics written  to  standard
              output.

       -dd debuglevel
              Set the LDAP debugging level to debuglevel.  llddaappccoommppaarree must be
              compiled with LDAPDEBUG defined for this  option  to  have  any
              effect.

       -xx     Use simple authentication instead of SASL.

       -DD binddn
              Use the Distinguished Name binddn to bind to the LDAP directory.

       -WW     Prompt for simple authentication.  This is used instead of spec-
              ifying the password on the command line.

       -ww passwd
              Use passwd as the password for simple authentication.

       -yy passwdfile
              Use  complete  contents of passwdfile as the password for simple
              authentication.

       -HH ldapuri
              Specify URI(s) referring to the ldap server(s).

       -hh ldaphost
              Specify an alternate host on which the ldap server  is  running.
              Deprecated in favor of -H.

       -pp ldapport
              Specify  an  alternate TCP port where the ldap server is listen-
              ing.  Deprecated in favor of -H.

       -PP 2|3 Specify the LDAP protocol version to use.

       -OO security-properties
              Specify SASL security properties.

       -II     Enable SASL Interactive mode.  Always  prompt.   Default  is  to
              prompt only as needed.

       -QQ     Enable SASL Quiet mode.  Never prompt.

       -UU authcid
              Specify  the authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the ID
              depends on the actual SASL mechanism used.

       -RR realm
              Specify the realm of authentication ID for SASL bind.  The  form
              of the realm depends on the actual SASL mechanism used.

       -XX authzid
              Specify  the  requested authorization ID for SASL bind.  authzid
              must be one of the following formats: ddnn:: or
              uu::

       -YY mech
              Specify  the  SASL  mechanism  to be used for authentication. If
              it's not specified, the program will choose the  best  mechanism
              the server knows.

       -ZZ[[ZZ]]  Issue StartTLS (Transport Layer Security) extended operation. If
              you use -ZZZZ, the command will require the operation to  be  suc-
              cessful.
