JXplorer Lightweight Directory Access Protocol, (LDAP), is a protocol for
querying and modifying directory services. A directory comprises
an indexed set of information set out in hierarchical format. LDAP
usually use DNS names for their structured formatting. Querying via LDAP
can allow the tester to enumerate a great deal of information and can
yield to valid usernames with anonymous access and no credentials
required. There are a number of tools
out there, that are command-line based, however JXplorer
allows the tester a nice Graphical User Interface to query remote LDAP
servers.
JXplorer is a free general purpose LDAP browser that can be used to read
and search any LDAP directory, or any X500 directory with an LDAP
interface. JXplorers features include; - Standard LDAP operations: add/delete/copy/modify
- Complex operations: tree copy and tree delete
