LDAP query

[n0m]

Hi,

I did not find a forum that suits this question so I hope you guys can
help me out. I need to create a customize console where I need to have
as query something like this:

SHOW me ONLY all global groups in which the user test_t is member AND
where he is member of the assigned ManagedBy Group.

I have the feeling that this is not realy possible to accomplish, but
maybe there is an LDAP query Guru out here :)

Thanks in Advanced.

Bye

You won't get the managedBy part in one pass. You can certainly specify a
filter with memberOf = the DN of the user in question. Note that this only
supports direct membership though. If want nested membership, you must use
the in-chain matching rule extension (which is only available in more recent
AD versions).

I think it may be possible to use the in-chain matching rule on managedBy as
well, so you could try that. Documentation on it is here:

HTH!
