ldap \- Lightweight Directory Access Protocol package
.SH SYNOPSIS

#include <lber.h>
#include <ldap.h>

.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol ("LDAP") package includes
various command line LDAP clients and a LDAP client library to provide
programmatic access to the LDAP protocol. This man page gives an overview of
the LDAP client library functions.
.sp
.LP
An application might use the LDAP client library functions as follows. The
application would initialize a LDAP session with a LDAP server by calling
\fBldap_init\fR(3LDAP). Next, it authenticates to the LDAP server by calling
\fBldap_sasl_bind\fR(3LDAP) and friends. It may perform some LDAP operations
and obtain results by calling \fBldap_search\fR(3LDAP) and friends. To parse
the results returned from these functions, it calls
\fBldap_parse_result\fR(3LDAP), \fBldap_next_entry\fR(3LDAP), and
\fBldap_first_entry\fR(3LDAP) and others. It closes the LDAP session by calling
\fBldap_unbind\fR(3LDAP).
.sp
.LP
LDAP operations can be either synchronous or asynchronous. By convention, the
names of the synchronous functions end with "_s." For example, a synchronous
binding to the LDAP server can be performed by calling
\fBldap_sasl_bind_s\fR(3LDAP). Complete an asynchronous binding with
\fBldap_sasl_bind\fR(3LDAP). All synchronous functions return the actual
outcome of the operation, either \fBLDAP_SUCCESS\fR or an error code.
Asynchronous routines provide an invocation identifier which can be used to
obtain the result of a specific operation by passing it to
the \fBldap_result\fR(3LDAP) function.
.SS "Initializing a LDAP session"
.LP
Initializing a LDAP session involves calling the \fBldap_init\fR(3LDAP)
function. However, the call does not actually open a connection to the LDAP
server. It merely initializes a LDAP structure that represents the session. The
connection is opened when the first operation is attempted. Unlike
\fBldap_init()\fR, \fBldap_open\fR(3LDAP) attempts to open a connection with
the LDAP server. However, the use of \fBldap_open()\fR is deprecated.
.SS "Authenticating to a LDAP server"
.LP
The \fBldap_sasl_bind\fR(3LDAP) and \fBldap_sasl_bind_s\fR(3LDAP) functions
provide general and extensible authenticaton for an LDAP client to a LDAP
server. Both use the Simple Authentication Security Layer (SASL). Simplified
routines \fBldap_simple_bind\fR(3LDAP) and \fBldap_simple_bind_s\fR(3LDAP) use
cleartext passwords to bind to the LDAP server. Use of \fBldap_bind\fR(3LDAP)
and \fBldap_bind_s\fR(3LDAP)(3LDAP) is deprecated.
.SS "Searching a LDAP directory"
.LP
Search for an entry in a LDAP directory by calling the
\fBldap_search_ext\fR(3LDAP) or the \fBldap_search_ext_s\fR(3LDAP) functions.
These functions support LDAPv3 server controls, client controls and variable
size and time limits as arguments for each search operation.
\fBldap_search\fR(3LDAP) and \fBldap_search_s\fR(3LDAP) are identical functions
but do not support the controls and limits as arguments to the call.
.SS "Adding or Deleting an entry"
.LP
Use \fBldap_add_ext\fR(3LDAP) and \fBldap_delete_ext\fR(3LDAP) to add or delete
entries in a LDAP directory server. The synchronous counterparts to these
functions are \fBldap_add_ext_s\fR(3LDAP) and \fBldap_delete_ext_s\fR(3LDAP).
The \fBldap_add\fR(3LDAP), \fBldap_add_s\fR(3LDAP), \fBldap_delete\fR(3LDAP),
and \fBldap_delete_s\fR(3LDAP) provide identical functionality to add and to
delete entries, but they do not support LDAP v3 server and client controls.
.SS "Modifying Entries"
.LP
Use \fBldap_modify_ext\fR(3LDAP) and \fBldap_modify_ext_s\fR(3LDAP) to modify
an existing entry in a LDAP server that supports for LDAPv3 server and client
controls. Similarly, use \fBldap_rename\fR(3LDAP) and
\fBldap_rename_s\fR(3LDAP) to change the name of an LDAP entry. The
\fBldap_modrdn\fR(3LDAP), \fBldap_modrdn_s\fR(3LDAP), \fBldap_modrdn2\fR(3LDAP)
and \fBldap_modrdn2_s\fR(3LDAP) interfaces are deprecated.
.SS "Obtaining Results"
.LP
Use \fBldap_result\fR(3LDAP) to obtain the results of a previous asynchronous
operation. For all LDAP operations other than search, only one message is
returned. For the search operation, a list of result messages can be returned.
.SS "Handling Errors and Parsing Results"
.LP
Use the \fBldap_parse_result\fR(3LDAP),
\fBldap_parse_sasl_bind_result\fR(3LDAP), and the
\fBldap_parse_extended_result\fR(3LDAP) functions to extract required
information from results and to handle the returned errors. To convert a
numeric error code into a null-terminated character string message describing
the error, use \fBldap_err2string\fR(3LDAP). The \fBldap_result2error\fR(3LDAP)
and \fBldap_perror\fR(3LDAP) functions are deprecated. To step through the list
of messages in a result returned by \fBldap_result()\fR, use
\fBldap_first_message\fR(3LDAP) and \fBldap_next_message\fR(3LDAP).
\fBldap_count_messages\fR(3LDAP) returns the number of messages contained in
the list.
.sp
.LP
You can use \fBldap_first_entry\fR(3LDAP) and \fBldap_next_entry\fR(3LDAP) to
step through and obtain a list of entries from a list of messages returned by a
search result. \fBldap_count_entries\fR(3LDAP) returns the number of entries
contained in a list of messages. Call either \fBldap_first_attribute\fR(3LDAP)
and \fBldap_next_attribute\fR(3LDAP) to step through a list of attributes
associated with an entry. Retrieve the values of a given attribute by calling
\fBldap_get_values\fR(3LDAP) and \fBldap_get_values_len\fR(3LDAP). Count the
number of values returned by using \fBldap_count_values\fR(3LDAP) and
\fBldap_count_values_len\fR(3LDAP).
.sp
.LP
Use the \fBldap_get_lang_values\fR(3LDAP) and
\fBldap_get_lang_values_len\fR(3LDAP) to return an attribute's values that
matches a specified language subtype. The \fBldap_get_lang_values()\fR function
returns an array of an attribute's string values that matches a specified
language subtype. To retrieve the binary data from an attribute, call the
\fBldap_get_lang_values_len()\fR function instead.
.SS "Uniform Resource Locators (URLS)"
.LP
You can use the \fBldap_url\fR(3LDAP)functions to test a URL to verify that it
is an LDAP URL, to parse LDAP URLs into their component pieces, to initiate
searches directly using an LDAP URL, and to retrieve the URL associated with a
DNS domain name or a distinguished name.
.SS "User Friendly Naming"
.LP
The \fBldap_ufn\fR(3LDAP) functions implement a user friendly naming scheme by
means of LDAP. This scheme allows you to look up entries using fuzzy, untyped
names like "mark smith, umich, us".
.SS "Caching"
.LP
The \fBldap_memcache\fR(3LDAP) functions provide an in-memory client side cache
to store search requests. Caching improves performance and reduces network
bandwidth when a client makes repeated requests.
.SS "Utility Functions"
.LP
There are also various utility functions. You can use the
\fBldap_sort\fR(3LDAP) functions are used to sort the entries and values
returned by means of the ldap search functions. The \fBldap_friendly\fR(3LDAP)
functions will map from short two letter country codes or other strings to
longer "friendlier" names. Use the \fBldap_charset\fR(3LDAP) functions to
translate to and from the T.61 character set that is used for many character
strings in the LDAP protocol.
.SS "Generating Filters"
.LP
Make calls to \fBldap_init_getfilter\fR(3LDAP) and \fBldap_search\fR(3LDAP) to
generate filters to be used in \fBldap_search\fR(3LDAP) and
\fBldap_search_s\fR(3LDAP). \fBldap_init_getfilter()\fR reads
\fBldapfilter.conf\fR(4), the LDAP configuration file, while
\fBldap_init_getfilter_buf()\fR reads the configuration information from
\fIbuf\fR of length \fIbuflen\fR. \fBldap_getfilter_free\fR(3LDAP) frees memory
that has been allocated by means of \fBldap_init_getfilter()\fR.
.SS "BER Library"
.LP
The LDAP package includes a set of lightweight Basic Encoding Rules ("BER)"
functions. The LDAP library functions use the BER functions to encode and
decode LDAP protocol elements through the slightly simplified BER defined by
LDAP. They are not normally used directly by an LDAP application program will
not normally use the BER functions directly. Instead, these functions provide a
\fBprintf()\fR and \fBscanf()\fR-like interface, as well as lower-level access.
