Ldapdelete opens a connection to an LDAP server, binds and deletes one or more entries. The DNs of the entries to be deleted are passed as arguments or read from a file (with -f option). Without dn arguments or -f options, ldapdelete will read them from the standard input.

 

ldapdelete

[-n] [-v] [-k] [-K] [-c] [-M[M]] [-d debuglevel] [-f file] [-D binddn] [-W] [-w passwd] [-y passwdfile] [-H ldapuri] [-h ldaphost] [-P 2|3] [-p ldapport] [-O security-properties] [-U authcid] [-R realm] [-x] [-I] [-Q] [-X authzid] [-Y mech] [-Z[Z]] [dn]

 

-c	Continuous operation mode. If an error is found when an entry is being deleted, it is reported, but ldapdelete will continue reading dns. The default is to exit after reporting an error.
-h ldaphost	Specifies an alternate host on which the LDAP server is running
-p ldapport	Specifies the TCP port where LDAP server is listening
-D binddn	Binddn is the distinguished name used to bind to the LDAP server
-w passwd	Use passwd as the password for simple authentication
-f file	Read the entries to delete from file.
dn	Distinguished name of the entry to be deleted.

Example

should have been written by James Bond after the end of "Goldfinger" and "James Bond vs. Dr No" to delete the entries created in the ldapadd example.
