Using ldap_cachemgr for Debugging

Using ldap_cachemgr with the -g option can be a useful way to debug, as you can view the current client configuration and statistics. For example,


# ldap_cachemgr -g

would print current configuration and statistics to standard output, including the status of all LDAP servers, as mentioned previously. Note that you do not need to become super user to execute this command.
