Table 6-10 Additional ldapsearch options (continued)

Option	Description
-S	Specifies the attribute to use as the sort criteria. For example:
	-S sn
	Use multiple -Sarguments to further define the sort order. In the following example, the search
	results will be sorted first by surname, then by given name:
	-S sn -S givenname
	The default is not to sort the returned entries.
-T	Specifies that no line breaks should be used within individual values in the search results.
-t	Specifies that the results be written to a set of temporary files. With this option, each attribute value
	is placed in a separate file within the system temporary directory. No base-64 encoding is performed
	on the values, regardless of the content.
-u	Specifies that the user-friendly form of the distinguished name be used in the output.
-v	Specifies that the utility is to run in verbose mode.
-V	Specifies the LDAP version number to be used on the search. For example:
	-V 2
	LDAPv3 is the default. An LDAPv3 search cannot be performed against a Directory Server that
	only supports LDAPv2.
-Y	Specifies the proxy DN to use for the search. This argument is provided for testing purposes. For
	more information about proxied authorization, see the "Managing Access Control" chapter in the
	HP-UX Directory Server administrator guide.
-X	Specifies the getEffectiveRightscontrol specific attribute list, where attributes are separated
	by spaces. For example:
	"nsroledn userPassword"
