     NAME
          ldapwhoami - LDAP who am i? tool

     SYNOPSIS
          ldapwhoami [-n] [-v] [-z] [-d debuglevel] [-D binddn] [-W]
          [-w passwd] [-y passwdfile] [-H ldapuri] [-h ldaphost]
          [-p ldapport] [-O security-properties] [-I] [-Q]
          [-U authcid] [-R realm] [-x] [-X authzid] [-Y mech] [-Z[Z]]

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

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

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

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

          -d debuglevel
               Set the LDAP debugging level to debuglevel.
               ldapcompare must be compiled with LDAP_DEBUG defined
               for this option to have any effect.

          -x   Use simple authentication instead of SASL.

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

          -W   Prompt for simple authentication.  This is used instead
               of specifying the password on the command line.

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

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

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

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

          -p ldapport
               Specify an alternate TCP port where the ldap server is
               listening.  Deprecated in favor of -H.

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

          -O security-properties
               Specify SASL security properties.

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

          -Q   Enable SASL Quiet mode.  Never prompt.

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

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

          -X authzid
               Specify the requested authorization ID for SASL bind.
               authzid must be one of the following formats:
               dn:<distinguished name> or u:<username>

          -Y 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.

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

     EXAMPLE
              ldapwhoami -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" -W
