You want to use OpenLDAP command-line tools?
Why don't you just set env var LDAPCONF to the config file you need?
You could also override certain configuration items by setting the accompanying env var.
correct, this is using the ldapsearch command shipped with RHEL 6.4 (2.4.23-32.el6_4.1, to be specific).
As mentioned in both my original post as well as my last response to Chad, I did try setting LDAPRC to point to a separate file, but didn't have any luck with that. I did not think to try LDAPCONF, though, so thank you for that suggestion. Unfortunately, I had the same result - my ~/.ldaprc file gets sourced in addition to $LDAPCONF, and that conflicts with or overrides the settings in $LDAPCONF, so it still fails.
By the environmental variables, just to clarify, you're referring to LDAPTLS_REQCERT and the like, right? I've tried that as well, but still no luck. Chad had also suggested this, and I showed in my reply back to him what happens when I try that.
