I have an ldap entry cn=My Name,ou=users,dc=domain,dc=com with these attributes among others:
mail: test#domain.com
mail: test2#domain.com
Then I perform and SEARCH with LDAP_SCOPE_SUBTREE on ou=users,dc=domain,dc=com with this query filter: (mail=test#domain.com) The requested attribute would be mail
The answer would be:
test#domain.com
test2#domain.com
But I only want test2#domain.com as result.
Is there a possility to do this with either the query filter or the OpenLDAP ACL?
I already tried the query filter: (&(mail=test#domain.com)(!(mail=test2#domain.com))), but this returns an empty value
And my thought on doing this with ACL was to use something like attrs=mail val=*searchquery* as "What to control access to"-part, but the documentation on this is not very detailed.
Any idea or better any solution for this problem? (and no, changing this to two different attributes is not really an option)

In this OU=Employees,OU=Users,DC=org,DC=com I have a list of CN (user1, user2, user3. Each CN (user) contains a list of attributes (isUseless, managerid, etc.)
I want to obtain a list of all CN Employees, whos attribute isUseless=Yes.
I've searched all over the web and read countless tutorials, but am struggling to understand probably some basic concepts here. I would really apprecaite if someone could break down the solution for me.
A LDAP Search filter similar to:
(&(isUseless=Yes)(|(cn= user1)(cn= user1)(cn=user1)))
or for all entries with cn values:
(&(isUseless=Yes)(cn=*))
or for all user type entries (in Microsoft Active Directory:
(&(isUseless=Yes)(sAMAccountType=805306368))
Specifying the:
returned attributes: "isUseless" "managerid" "etc"
baseDN: OU=Employees,OU=Users,DC=org,DC=com
Should do the trick.
Let me know how I can help.

Hallo I need help to optimize a LDAP Filter string because the Ldap filter is too long (maximum is 255 characters) for my tool (Foreman).
My LDAP curent Ldap filter
(|
(memberOf=cn=admingoup,ou=groups,OU=admin,DC=xxx,DC=de)
(memberOf=CN=group1,OU=dd,OU=cc,OU=ab,DC=xxx,DC=de)
(memberOf=CN=group2,OU=dd,OU=cc,OU=ab,DC=xxx,DC=de)
)
This work but i need a soultion like
(|
(memberOf=cn=admingoup,ou=groups,OU=admin,DC=xxx,DC=de)
(memberOf=CN=*,OU=dd,OU=cc,OU=ab,DC=xxx,DC=de)
)
I don't think you can work your way out without making modifications on your constraints somewhere :
Allow longer filter in foreman
Modify the LDAP directory to allow substring match on the memberOf attribute
Modify your filter. A way to do it could be :
search base dn : DC=xxx,DC=de
search filter : (&(objectclass=group)(|(cn=admingroup)(cn=group1)(cn=group2))) (This is an example, the point is to match only the group you need, maybe using the entry id if necessary)
attribute retrieve member (or the equivalent)
What it will do is to retrieve all the members of these groups, dupplicate members should not be a probleme for access control I presume
I am setting up gitlab to have LDAP access.
I would like to give access to 2 seperate OU's OU=Users,OU=Dept1,OU=land,DC=my,DC=com and OU=Users,OU=Dept2,OU=land,DC=my,DC=com (basically the users of 2 departments.
I believe that I would have to set the base to OU=land,DC=my,DC=com and then use a user_filer (Format: RFC 4515)
Probably something of the sort
(|(ou=Dept1)(ou=Dept2))
How do I extend this to specify only for the USERS within those ou's? Thanks
Note:
When I use the Filter: (objectClass=user)I am given access
however if i change it to any of the following I am refused access
(&(objectClass=user)(ou=Users))
(&(objectClass=user)(ou=Dept1))
(&(objectClass=user)(ou=Users,ou=Dept1,ou=land))
(&(objectClass=user)(ou=Users,ou=Dept1,ou=land,dc=my,dc=com))
You should add an objectClass constraint to the filter to limit it only to users , say (&(objectClass=Person))
My DIT:
dc=mucompany,dc=com
ou=moodlegroups
ou=moodleusers
ou=Students
mail=student1#mail.com
courseCertificate=Type1
courseCertificate=Type2
courseCertificate=Type3
mail=student2#mail.com
courseCertificate=Type1
courseCertificate=Type2
courseCertificate=Type3
the mail=student1#gmail.com entry has the mail as RDN and a bunch of other attributes(cn,sn...also custom attributes) and has like childrens the CourseCertificate=value entres also containing bunch of other attributes(courseCertificateRunning=TRUE,courseCertificateEnding=20120210,...)
I need to make a query that searchs for (&(sn=Brad)(courseRunning=TRUE)) that returns all the attributes of the parent entry and of the child entry that satisfy the filter...
Is this possible with one ldapsearch?
Any help it will means a lot to me, thanks in advance.
P.S. I'm using openldap 2.4, i try to do the queres using AD Studio
LDAP search filters are evaluated against each individual entry, to decide if it must be returned or not. They are not evaluated against a hierarchy of entries.
If I added data on LDAP in this way:
$ldapserver = "mail";
$ds = ldap_connect($ldapserver);
$r = ldap_bind($ds, $ldaprootun, $ldaprootpw);
add = ldap_add($ds, "cn=$full_name,ou=$domain,o=mygroup.com", $infonew);
Then does that mean that when I log in to my account I will use:
`cn="mynameHere",ou="domainIused",o=mygroup.com`
as my username? Or just my uid?
My account cannot login but I'm sure that it exists in LDAP.
Answers are very much appreciated. =)
Typically in LDAP applications you only ned to login with your UID, not your full X.500 name.
Try calling ldap_bind() with your creds and see what it returns?
Usually, the user provides a simple name. Then the app searches the LDAP source for some attribute that has that value. Then you bind or password compare in your code, as that full DN.
You can use uid which is Unique ID, which is required to be unique. I.e. If you find more than one instance of it, that is an error.
You can try CN, but that can often be multi valued depending on your LDAP implementations schema.
If you know you are going against eDirectory, then uid is fine, or CN just do something if it is multi valued.
If you know you are going against Active Directory, you can assume sAMAccountName is unique since the system enforces uniqueness. userPrinicpalName ought to be unique, but nothing actually enforces it.
You can always use mail, which is the email address pretty uniformly.
