[Freeipa-users] Search Base issues

[Chris Whittle]

For testing I'm using

ldapsearch -LLL -H ldaps://DOMAIN636 -x -D "cn=directory manager" -w
'nachopassword' -b "cn=canlogin,cn=compat,dc=domain,dc=com"
If I do it with directory manager it works fine, if I use my automation
user (just a generic user with no extra permissions) it returns nothing, no
error, just empty space

if I add -v (verbose) i get

ldap_initialize( ldaps://domain.com:636/??base )

filter: (objectclass=*)

requesting: All userApplication attributes


Thanks everyone!
