How to get ldapsearch on Scientific Linux?

How do I get the ldapsearch on Scientific Linux?

I am trying to find the ldapsearch client for Scientific Linux but cannot find how to install the client in order to do LDAP queries.


Use yum whatprovides to see what package provides a file. The following was run on SL6.x:

$ yum whatprovides */ldapsearch
...
openldap-clients-2.4.23-15.el6.x86_64 : LDAP client utilities
Matched from:
Filename    : /usr/bin/ldapsearch

It's part of the openldap-clients package, so yum install openldap-clients.

The package contents are thus:

$ repoquery -lq openldap-clients
/usr/bin/ldapadd
/usr/bin/ldapcompare
/usr/bin/ldapdelete
/usr/bin/ldapexop
/usr/bin/ldapmodify
/usr/bin/ldapmodrdn
/usr/bin/ldappasswd
/usr/bin/ldapsearch
/usr/bin/ldapurl
/usr/bin/ldapwhoami
/usr/share/man/man1/ldapadd.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/ldapcompare.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/ldapdelete.1.gz
