Useful for
debugging in conjunction with -v.
-v

-d debuglevel
Set the LDAP debugging level to debuglevel.
ldapwhoami
must be compiled with LDAP_DEBUG defined for this option to have any effect.
-x

This is used instead of specifying the password on the command line.
-w passwd
Use passwd as the password for simple authentication.
-y passwdfile
Use complete contents of passwdfile as the password for
simple authentication.
