The ldap_modrdn() and ldap_modrdn_s() functions perform an
LDAP modify RDN (Relative Distinguished Name) operation. They both take dn, the DN (Distinguished Name) of the entry whose RDN is to be changed, and newrdn, the new RDN, to give the entry. The old RDN of the entry is never kept as anattribute of the entry. ldap_modrdn() is asynchronous. It
return the message id of the operation it initiates.ldap_modrdn_s() is synchronous. It returns the LDAP error
code that indicates the success or failure of the operation.The ldap_modrdn2() and ldap_modrdn2_s() functions also per-
form an LDAP modify RDN operation. They take the same param-
eters as above. In addition, they both take the deleteoldrdn parameter ,which is used as a boolean value to indicate whether or not the old RDN values should be deletedSunOS 5.11 Last change: 22 Octo 2001 1

from the entry.The ldap_rename(), ldap_rename_s() routines are used to
change the name, that is, the RDN of an entry. These rou-
tines deprecate the ldap_modrdn() and ldap_modrdn_s() rou-
tines, as well as ldap_modrdn2() and ldap_modrdn2_s().
The ldap_rename() and ldap_rename_s() functions both sup-
port LDAPv3 server controls and client controls.ERRORS
The synchronous (_s) versions of these functions return an
LDAP error code, either LDAP_SUCCESS or an error. See
ldap_error(3LDAP).
The asynchronous versions return -1 in the event of an
error, setting the ld_errno field of ld. See
ldap_error(3LDAP) for more details. Use ldap_result(3LDAP)
to determine a particular unsuccessful result.ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for a description of the following attri-
butes of the ldap_modrdn(), ldap_modrdn_s(), ldap_modrdn2()
