Overview

The main search field in the upper right corner searches the whole directory and gives first results while typing (actual search starts after entering three characters). The following example shows, that after typing four letters, we have four results (each containing the first four letters “Müll”):

  • Two customers “Peter Müller” and “Stefan Müller”.
  • One reseller “Müller & Co GmbH”.
  • One service “Online Backup 10 Gigabyte (Hausi Müller)”.

Search Selection

After the user has entered the first three characters, we do a first search selection:

  • Numerical value (integer): Start a search for a uid (unique identifier)
  • Alphanumerical value (non-integer): Start a search for either displayName or gecos.

Reseller Search

Numerical value (integer) Reseller Search

The following example shows you the numerical value (integer) search (uid search) with 400 (400*) as the search parameter and the attributes o (for the organisation) and sstIsActive as the return values: 

ldapsearch -H ldaps://ldapm.tombstone.ch \
  -b "ou=reseller,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org" \
  -s one \
  -D "cn=Manager,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org" \
  -W -x -LLL \
  "(uid=400*)" o sstIsActive

Do not forget to restrict the search according to the person who is currently logged in.

The result(s): 

dn: uid=4000000,ou=reseller,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org
o: Reseller Ltd.
sstIsActive: TRUE

Legend: 

-H: ldapuri
       Specify URI(s) referring to the ldap server(s).
-b: searchbase
       Use searchbase as the starting point for the search  instead  of
       the default.
-s: base|one|sub
       Specify  the  scope of the search to be one of base, one, or sub
       to specify a base object, one-level,  or  subtree  search.   The
       default is sub.
-D: binddn
       Use the Distinguished Name binddn to bind to the LDAP directory.
-W:    Prompt for simple authentication.  This is used instead of spec-
       ifying the password on the command line.
-x:    Use simple authentication instead of SASL.
-LLL:  Search  results  are  display  in  LDAP  Data Interchange Format
       detailed in ldif(5).   A  single  -L  restricts  the  output  to
       LDIFv1.   A  second  -L  disables comments.  A third -L disables
       printing of the LDIF version.  The default is to use an extended
       version of LDIF.

Alphanumerical value (non-integer) Reseller Search

The following example shows you the alphanumerical value (non-integer) search with res (res*) as the search parameter and the attributes o (for the organisation) and sstIsActive as the return values: 

ldapsearch -H ldaps://ldapm.tombstone.ch \
  -b "ou=reseller,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org" \
  -s one \
  -D "cn=Manager,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org" \
  -W -x -LLL \
  "(o=res*)" o sstIsActive

Do not forget to restrict the search according to the person who is currently logged in.

The result(s): 

dn: uid=4000000,ou=reseller,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org
o: Reseller Ltd.
sstIsActive: TRUE

Customer Search

The customer search is a bit different than the reseller search, because we can have company and private customers.

Numerical value (integer) Customer Search

The following example shows you the numerical value (integer) search (uid search) with 400 (400*) as the search parameter and the attributes o (for the organisation) and sstIsActive as the return values: 

ldapsearch -H ldaps://ldapm.tombstone.ch \
  -b "ou=customers,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org" \
  -s one \
  -D "cn=Manager,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org" \
  -W -x -LLL \
  "(&(sstBelongsToResellerUID=4000000)(uid=400*))" o sn givenName sstIsActive

Do not forget to restrict the search according to the person who is currently logged in.

The result(s): 

dn: uid=4000001,ou=customers,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org
o: Customer Ltd.
sstIsActive: TRUE

Alphanumerical value (non-integer) Customer Search

The following example shows you the alphanumerical value (non-integer) search with cus (cus*) as the search parameter and the attributes o (for the organisation), givenName, sn (surname) and sstIsActive as the return values: 

ldapsearch -H ldaps://ldapm.tombstone.ch \
  -b "ou=customers,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org" \
  -s one \
  -D "cn=Manager,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org" \
  -W -x -LLL \
  "(&(sstBelongsToResellerUID=4000000)(|(o=cus*)(sn=cus*)(givenName=cus*)))" o givenName sn sstIsActive

Do not forget to restrict the search according to the person who is currently logged in.

The result(s): 

dn: uid=4000001,ou=customers,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org
o: Customer Ltd.
sstIsActive: TRUE

dn: uid=5000001,ou=customers,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org
givenName: Name
sstIsActive: TRUE
sn: Customer

Person (People) Search

Numerical value (integer) People Search

The following example shows you the numerical value (integer) search (uid search) with 400 (400*) as the search parameter and the attributes o (for the organisation) and sstIsActive as the return values: 

ldapsearch -H ldaps://ldapm.tombstone.ch \
  -b "ou=people,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org" \
  -s one \
  -D "cn=Manager,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org" \
  -W -x -LLL \
  "(&(sstBelongsToResellerUID=4000000)(uid=400*))" o sn givenName sstIsActive

Do not forget to restrict the search according to the person who is currently logged in.

The result(s): 

dn: uid=4000002,ou=people,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org
givenName: Michael
sn: Eichenberger
sstIsActive: TRUE

dn: uid=4000064,ou=people,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org
givenName: Christian
sn: Wittkowski
sstIsActive: TRUE

dn: uid=4000066,ou=people,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org
givenName: Stijn
sn: Van Paesschen
sstIsActive: FALSE

dn: uid=4000069,ou=people,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org
givenName: Jan
sn: Guldentops
sstIsActive: FALSE

Alphanumerical value (non-integer) People Search

The following example shows you the alphanumerical value (non-integer) search with mic (mic*) as the search parameter and the attributes o (for the organisation), givenName, sn (surname) and sstIsActive as the return values: 

ldapsearch -H ldaps://ldapm.tombstone.ch \
  -b "ou=people,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org" \
  -s one \
  -D "cn=Manager,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org" \
  -W -x -LLL \
  "(&(sstBelongsToResellerUID=4000000)(|(o=mic*)(sn=mic*)(givenName=mic*)))" o givenName sn sstIsActive

Do not forget to restrict the search according to the person who is currently logged in.

The result(s): 

dn: uid=4000002,ou=people,dc=foss-cloud,dc=org
givenName: Michael
sn: Eichenberger

Services Search

Each Service needs to be looked at separately, because the services have different dn's attributes.

Backup

Numerical value (integer) Backup Search

Alphanumerical value (non-integer) Backup Search

Mail

Numerical value (integer) Mail Search

Alphanumerical value (non-integer) Mail Search
