We are doing to POC to check if we can use opendistro securoty plugin to enable LDAP authentication in OSS version of Elasticsearch. During the process we have pushed our LDAP config to .opendistro\_security index. However we also want to verify whether we have pushed right information. So is there any way to read .opendistro\_security index. We do have all\_access for our admin user which we are trying to do this activity. ---

You'd probably need to ask the Open Distro folks to get an answer, not sure anyone here would definitely know sorry. ---
