• Querying LDAP and Active Directory from Linux with ldapsearch without a password on the command line

  ldapsearch supports a simple bind with a bound DN and password, or a SASL/GSSAPI bind using an existing Kerberos ticket, plus paged results and StartTLS/LDAPS for an encrypted connection. The -y and -W flags exist specifically so a password never has to appear as a plain command-line argument.
