No results when searching with dn

Question

Thanks for reading

Here's an screenshot of my ldap This command:

docker exec ldap-service ldapsearch -v -x -H ldap://localhost:389 -b dc=everteam,dc=us -D "cn=admin,dc=everteam,dc=us" -w everteam cn=estebanf

... return the result I'm looking for:

ldap_initialize( ldap://localhost:389/??base )
filter: cn=estebanf
requesting: All userApplication attributes
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <dc=everteam,dc=us> with scope subtree
# filter: cn=estebanf
# requesting: ALL
#

# estebanf, People, everteam.us
dn: cn=estebanf,ou=People,dc=everteam,dc=us
cn: estebanf
displayName: Esteban J Felipe M
mail: [email protected]
givenName: Esteban Felipe
sn: Esteban Felipe
userPassword:: e01ENX00UXJjT1VtNldhdStWdUJYOGcrSVBnPT0=
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: top
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: person
ou: People

# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success

# numResponses: 2
# numEntries: 1

But this command:

docker exec ldap-service ldapsearch -v -x -H ldap://localhost:389 -b dc=everteam,dc=us -D "cn=admin,dc=everteam,dc=us" -w everteam cn=estebanf,ou=People,dc=everteam,dc=us

.. doesn't. The difference is that I'm using the full dn

# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <dc=everteam,dc=us> with scope subtree
# filter: cn=estebanf,ou=People,dc=everteam,dc=us
# requesting: ALL
#

# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success

# numResponses: 1
ldap_initialize( ldap://localhost:389/??base )
filter: cn=estebanf,ou=People,dc=everteam,dc=us
requesting: All userApplication attributes

Any suggestion on how to make the search with the full dn work?. The software I'm trying to integrate with openldap will issue a search with full DN and I have no way to change that.

Thanks!

Try something like:

ldapsearch -v -x -H ldap://localhost:389 -b cn=estebanf,ou=People,dc=everteam,dc=us -D "cn=admin,dc=everteam,dc=us" -w everteam  --searchScope base "(objectclass=*)" '*'

Which performs a search at the individual user entry requesting all attributes.
