ldapsearch -x -D "uid=user,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com" \
           -W -H ldap://ldap.example.com -b "ou=People,dc=example,dc=com" \
           -s sub 'uid=user'

 ldapsearch -xLLL -H ldaps://ldaps.example.com:636 -D "DOMAIN\\myuser" -W -b "DC=example,DC=com" -s sub "(&(objectclass=user)(memberOf=Domain U
sers))" sAMAccountName

ldapsearch  # the command itself
-LLL  # just a particular way to display the results
-H ldap://wspace.mydomain.com  # the URL where the LDAP server listens
-x  # use simple authentication, not SASL
-D 'WSPACE\ENUMuser'  # the account to use to authenticate to LDAP
-w 'ENUMpass'  # the password that goes with the account on the previous line
-E pr=1000/noprompt  # ask the server for all pages, don't stop after one
-b 'ou=mydomain,dc=wspace,dc=mydomain,dc=com'  # the base of the search. We don't want results from e.g. 'ou=blah,dc=wspace,dc=mydomain,dc=com'
'(&(objectClass=person)(uidNumber=*))'  # Ask for any entry that has attributes objectClass=person and uidNumber has a value
SAMAccountName uid uidNumber  # Show only these attributes
