DESCRIPTION
ldapexop issues the LDAP extended operation specified by
oid or one of the special keywords
whoami,
cancel, or
refresh.
Additional data for the extended operation can be passed to the server using
data or base-64 encoded as
b64data in the case of
oid, or using the additional parameters in the case of the specially named extended operations above.
Please note that ldapexop behaves differently for the same extended operation when it was given as an OID or as a specialliy named operation:
Calling ldapexop with the OID of the
whoami (RFC 4532) extended operation
ldapexop [<options>] 1.3.6.1.4.1.4203.1.11.3
yields
# extended operation response
data:: <base64 encoded response data>
while calling it with the keyword whoami
ldapexop [<options>] whoami
results in
dn:<client's identity>
