Hello All,

Can any one please help me how can i search using wild card character.

My base dn is "dc=example,dc=com" and i want to search all the records having "telephone" attribute whose value is starting from 256*

Am using below verion of openldap $OpenLDAP: slapd 2.4.40‎

Is there any changes which needs to be done in slapd.conf to enable wildcard search

First check wether the telephoneNumber attribute type allows substrings indexing. Further you should have defined a substrings index on the telephoneNumber attribute, and the search string should have an appropriate filter, something like (&(objectClass=*)(telephoneNumber=256*))
