The \fIDN\fP should be a distinguished +name in the directory. \fIAttr\fP should be a known attribute. If +followed by one colon, the assertion \fIvalue\fP should be provided +as a string. If followed by two colons, the base64 encoding of the +value is provided. The result code of the compare is provided as +the exit code and, unless ran with \fB\-z\fP, the program prints +TRUE, FALSE, or UNDEFINED on standard output. +.LP +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.BR \-V [ V ] +Print version info. +If \fB\-VV\fP is given, only the version information is printed. +.TP +.BI \-d \ debuglevel +Set the LDAP debugging level to \fIdebuglevel\fP. +.B ldapcompare +must be compiled with LDAP_DEBUG defined for this option to have any effect. +.TP +.B \-n +Show what would be done, but don't actually perform the compare. Useful for +debugging in conjunction with \fB\-v\fP. +.TP +.B \-v +Run in verbose mode, with many diagnostics written to standard output. +.TP +.B \-z +Run in quiet mode, no output is written. You must check the return +status. Useful in shell scripts. +.TP +.BR \-M [ M ] +Enable manage DSA IT control. +.B \-MM +makes control critical. +.TP +.B \-x +Use simple authentication instead of SASL. +.TP +.BI \-D \ binddn +Use the Distinguished Name \fIbinddn\fP to bind to the LDAP directory. +For SASL binds, the server is expected to ignore this value. +.TP +.B \-W +Prompt for simple authentication. +This is used instead of specifying the password on the command line. +.TP +.BI \-w \ passwd +Use \fIpasswd\fP as the password for simple authentication. +.TP +.BI \-y \ passwdfile +Use complete contents of \fIpasswdfile\fP as the password for +simple authentication. +Note that \fIcomplete\fP means that any leading or trailing whitespaces, +including newlines, will be considered part of the password and, +unlike other software, they will not be stripped. +As a consequence, passwords stored in files by commands like +.BR echo (1) +will not behave as expected, since +.BR echo (1) +by default appends a trailing newline to the echoed string. +The recommended portable way to store a cleartext password in a file +for use with this option is to use +.BR slappasswd (8) +with \fI{CLEARTEXT}\fP as hash and the option \fB\-n\fP. +.TP +.BI \-H \ ldapuri +Specify URI(s) referring to the ldap server(s); only the protocol/host/port +fields are allowed; a list of URI, separated by whitespace or commas +is expected. +.TP +.BI \-h \ ldaphost +Specify an alternate host on which the ldap server is running. +Deprecated in favor of \fB\-H\fP. +.TP +.BI \-p \ ldapport +Specify an alternate TCP port where the ldap server is listening. +Deprecated in favor of \fB\-H\fP. +.TP +.BR \-P \ { 2 \||\| 3 } +Specify the LDAP protocol version to use. +.TP +.BR \-e \ [ ! ] \fIext\fP [ =\fIextparam\fP ] +.TP +.BR \-E \ [ ! ] \fIext\fP [ =\fIextparam\fP ] + +Specify general extensions with \fB\-e\fP and compare extensions with \fB\-E\fP. +\'\fB!\fP\' indicates criticality. + +General extensions: +.nf + [!]assert=<filter> (an RFC 4515 Filter) + !authzid=<authzid> ("dn:<dn>" or "u:<user>") + [!]bauthzid (RFC 3829 authzid control) + [!]chaining[=<resolve>[/<cont>]] + [!]manageDSAit + [!]noop + ppolicy + [!]postread[=<attrs>] (a comma-separated attribute list) + [!]preread[=<attrs>] (a comma-separated attribute list) + [!]relax + sessiontracking + abandon,cancel,ignore (SIGINT sends abandon/cancel, + or ignores response; if critical, doesn't wait for SIGINT. + not really controls) +.fi + +Compare extensions: +.nf + !dontUseCopy +.fi +.TP +.BI \-o \ opt \fR[= optparam \fR] + +Specify general options. + +General options: +.nf + nettimeout=<timeout> (in seconds, or "none" or "max") + ldif-wrap=<width> (in columns, or "no" for no wrapping) +.fi +.TP +.BI \-O \ security-properties +Specify SASL security properties. +.TP +.B \-I +Enable SASL Interactive mode.

Never prompt. +.TP +.B \-N +Do not use reverse DNS to canonicalize SASL host name. +.TP +.BI \-U \ authcid +Specify the authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the ID +depends on the actual SASL mechanism used. +.TP +.BI \-R \ realm +Specify the realm of authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of the realm +depends on the actual SASL mechanism used. +.TP +.BI \-X \ authzid +Specify the requested authorization ID for SASL bind. +.I authzid +must be one of the following formats: +.BI dn: "<distinguished name>" +or +.BI u: <username> +.TP +.BI \-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. +.TP +.BR \-Z [ Z ] +Issue StartTLS (Transport Layer Security) extended operation.
