Query LDAP users better ways through Ruby Net-LDAP?

results = search :base => @base, :filter => Net::LDAP::Filter.eq("cn", "*")
 @results = Array.new

 results.each do |result|
 @results. push result if result[:objectclass].include? "person" unless result[:objectclass].include? "computer"

filter = Net::LDAP::Filter.eq("sAMAccountName", "*")
filter2 = Net::LDAP::Filter.eq("objectCategory ", "organizationalPerson")

joined_filter = Net::LDAP::Filter.join(filter, filter2)

ldap.search(:base => treebase, :filter => joined_filter) do |entry|
 puts entry.sAMAccountName
end

Is there a better way to search specifically using the Net-ldap gem Users and computers?

This is what I currently do just to get users.

results = search :base => @base, :filter => Net::LDAP::Filter.eq("cn", "*")
 @results = Array.new

 results.each do |result|
 @results. push result if result[:objectclass].include? "person" unless result[:objectclass].include? "computer"

There seems to be a better way. I can’t see anything obvious in the documentation Something.

You can use the Join filter function of net-ldap:

 filter = Net::LDAP::Filter.eq("sAMAccountName", "*")
filter2 = Net::LDAP::Filter.eq("objectCategory", "organizationalPerson")

joined_filter = Net::LDAP::Filter.join(filter, filter2)

ldap.search(:base => treebase, :filter => joined_filter) do |entry|
 puts entry.sAMAccountName
end
