Specifies a base context in the LDAP
directory. When you add a new location (branch), you specify an
organization or organizational unit as a base. For example,
--base o=mycorp,c=us
--base ou=boston,o=mycorp,c=us
In some cases, you can use an abbreviation or a common name
for the base. This is possible only if the common name is a unique
value in the directory. For example,
--base boston
If posAdmin cannot determine the base (no base or more than
one base is found), it exits with an error message. |
