I have no problems getting ldapsearch to work: bjorn@obelix:~$ ldapsearch -x mail=bjorn.mork\* givenName sn mail # extended LDIF # # LDAPv3 # base <> with scope sub # filter: mail=bjorn.mork* # requesting: givenName sn mail # # 777777, example dn: employeeNumber=777777,o=example sn: Mork givenName:: QmrDuHJu mail: Bjorn.Mork@example.com # search result search: 2 result: 0 Success # numResponses: 2 # numEntries: 1 bjorn@obelix:~$ ldapsearch -x '(&(givenName=bjørn)(sn=mork))' givenName sn mail # extended LDIF # # LDAPv3 # base <> with scope sub # filter: (&(givenName=bjørn)(sn=mork)) # requesting: givenName sn mail # # 777777, example dn: employeeNumber=777777,o=example sn: Mork givenName:: QmrDuHJu mail: Bjorn.Mork@example.com # search result search: 2 result: 0 Success # numResponses: 2 # numEntries: 1 But I'm lost when it comes to converting this into eudc tab-expansion.
