# LDAP

## Manual Enumeration

Even without credentials, you can always query the RootDSE for naming contexts and potentially other information, such as the DnsHostName:

```
ldapsearch -x -h IP_ADDRESS_HERE -b "" -s base
```

Once you have the naming context(s), you can dump them (in this example, the naming context is `dc=cascade,dc=local`):

```
ldapsearch -h IP_ADDRESS_HERE -x -b "DC=cascade,DC=local" 
```

*Note: The output of this ldapsearch contains **more information** than the `ldap-search` nmap script. For example, in HTB cascade, it displayed info about users on the machine while `ldap-search` did not.*

## Dumping LDAP

Use ldapdomaindump (with credentials):

```
ldapdomaindump intelligence.htb -u 'intelligence.htb\Tiffany.Molina' -p NewIntelligenceCorpUser9876
```

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://heinosass.gitbook.io/leet-sheet/network-hacking/ldap.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
