how to write filter argumnt for search function of LDAPObject class

[Yang C. F. <Che...@ga...>]

Hi guys,

 

I am trying to access windows Active directory by using python-ldap, but I do not know how to write filter argument for search function.

search(base, scope [,filterstr='(objectClass=*)' [, attrlist=None [, attrsonly=0]]]).

 

For example: A filter sting which based on RFC4515 (http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc4515.html) is "(&(objectclass=organizationalUnit)(c=*))". From the docs of python-ldap, the forms of the argument, ('cn=fred*') and ('objectClass=*') can be found. 

 

I’d like to know how to write the sting of "(&(objectclass=organizationalUnit)(c=*))" for search function. I am not sure where it is enough to answer my question, if you need more information, just ask.

 

Thanks a lot

RE: how to write filter argumnt for search function of LDAPObject class

[Yang C. F. <Che...@ga...>]

我在用python-ldap来访问Windows Active directory, 但是不知道LDAPObject的search函数中的filter参数怎么写。我要写的参数是

"(&(objectclass=organizationalUnit)(c=*))"(基于RFC4515)

 

search函数的格式如下：

search(base, scope [,filterstr='(objectClass=*)' [, attrlist=None [, attrsonly=0]]]).

 

从python-ldap的文档中可以找到 ('cn=fred*')与('objectClass=*'),但是没有"(&(objectclass=organizationalUnit)(c=*))"的写法。

 

我是想知道filter, "(&(objectclass=organizationalUnit)(c=*))", 在search函数中怎么写？

 

I am not sure where it is enough to answer my question, if you need more information, just ask.

 

Thanks a lot

##here comes the translation:

I'm using python-ldap to access Windows Active Directory, but I don't know
howto write the 'filter' parameter in the function search of LDAPObject.
Based upon RFC4515, I want the filter paramter to be

According to the manual, the proto-type of search function is:
 search(base, scope[,filterstr='(objectclass=*)'[, attrlist=None [,

Could anybody help me?

 From http://python-ldap.sourceforge.net/doc/python-ldap/ldap-objects.html:

--------------------------- snip ---------------------------
The filterstr argument is a string representation of the filter to apply in 
the search.

See Also:

RFC 4515, Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP): String 
Representation of Search Filters.
--------------------------- snip ---------------------------

Yupp. That's exactly the string you have to pass to method search() and its 
derivates as argument filterstr.

Ouch! The example filterstr values on 
http://python-ldap.sourceforge.net/doc/python-ldap/ldap-example.html are 
simply typos. Sorry for that.

Ciao, Michael.
