Search filter.

Hi, I'm trying to make a filter that list out all students which are member of a given group:

base = "ou=student,ou=person,o=shcool"
filter = "(groupMembership=group1)"

The problem is that groupMembership is a multivalue (consists of an array)

Example student:
cn=username
l=here
groupMembership = group1, group2, group3

I am able to get all students which is a member of any groups with (groupMembership=*) but when I try to narrow the search I'm not getting any students.

Anyone done something like this before?
Thanks...

Is the field groupMembership indexed? If it's not indexed I don't think it'll return what you want. But once indexed then yes your query should work fine.

Tanks. I actually tried to search for group*, to get all the groups starting with certain characters, this did for some reason not work. But when I tried with the whole group name it did. Maybe it has something to do with the indexing.

Well, I got it working at last.
Thanks for the help anyways.

What do you have the field indexed as? If I remember right, different types of indexs allow different types of searches. If you want to search on group* you have to set the index as one thing, otherwise you have to search the full thing.

Frankly I don't know. It's an off site server, and my LDAP skills are a bit limited. I'm just happy I got it working, so now I can complete the integration to the system I'm making.

Thanks again for your help.
