Hi,

The manual pages ldapsearch(1) et.al. describe ldapuri abbriviation as -H and ldaphost abbriviation -h. Both, ldapuri and ldpaphost description might be of host name or host ip. If ldapuri is a ipv6 address, an error occurs: Could not parse LDAP URI(s)=2001:16b8:c115:9f00:44ff:f15b:11d1:e620 (3

ldapsearch -YGSSAPI -H 2001:16b8:c115:9f00:44ff:f15b:11d1:e620 -b "" -s base +. Just for verification one may use ipv6 address ::1

The question is: must ldapuri contain a hostname, or would a hostaddress be sufficient. While ldaphost accepts hostname and hostaddress?

ldapuri must contain a URI. That is why it is called what it is.

A bare hostname or IP address are not valid URIs.

That is rather strange, while (the escape sequences are zsh related)

ldapurl -H ldap://localhost/o=avci,c=de?+?? scheme: ldap host: localhost port: 389 dn: o=avci,c=de selector: + scope: base

ldapurl -H ldap://127.0.0.1/o=avci,c=de?+?? scheme: ldap host: 127.0.0.1 port: 389 dn: o=avci,c=de selector: + scope: base

ldapurl -H ldap://::1/o=avci,c=de?+?? unable to parse URI "ldap://::1/o=avci,c=de?+??"

It seems this is more likely ipv6 related.

The correct notation is ldapurl -H 'ldap://[::1]/'

IPv6 adresses are to be enclosed in [], or the colons would be ambiguous as ip:port -- for IPv6+port, use [ip]:port.

Mind the quotes, otherwise the shell may parse the [] as a glob pattern.
