We have been given an LDAP server to host for someone to use as a directory for another application and would like to do some tests on querying users and the response time rather than just testing that port 389 or 636 responds however the base dn has a space in it.

I thought about putting it inside quotes but then wasnt sure how much of the string to put into quotes.

You can always put the whole "ldap://...."; thing in quotes.

Alternatively, since this is really a URL you can use %-quoting of the
spaces in the URL. E.g. ldap://myserver/my%20dn??sub?uid=100 since
space is ASCII 0x20.

Also the server requires a bind user name and password there is no anonymous, and 99.9% of the user names also have a space, in this case "ldap manager"

Use ldaplogin="ldap manager" in addition to the ldap://... url.

Cool thanks for that Henrik. I knew I could probably quote the login but wasnt sure about the ldap tag. Forgot all about converting it to %20 also :)

Thanks
