Perform an LDAP modify RDN operation
SYNOPSIS
#include <ldap.h>
int ldap_modrdn(ld, dn, newrdn)
LDAP *ld;
char *dn, *newrdn;
int ldap_modrdn_s(ld, dn, newrdn)
LDAP *ld;
char *dn, *newrdn;
int ldap_modrdn2(ld, dn, newrdn, deleteoldrdn)
LDAP *ld;
char *dn, *newrdn;
int deleteoldrdn;
int ldap_modrdn2_s(ld, dn, newrdn, deleteoldrdn)
LDAP *ld;
char *dn, *newrdn;
int deleteoldrdn;
DESCRIPTION
The ldap_modrdn() and ldap_modrdn_s() routines perform an
LDAP modify RDN operation. They both take dn, the DN 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 an attribute of the entry. ldap_modrdn() is asyn
chronous, returning the message id of the operation it
initiates. ldap_modrdn_s() is synchronous, returning the
LDAP error code indicating the success or failure of the
operation. Use of these routines is deprecated. Use the
versions described below instead.
The ldap_modrdn2() and ldap_modrdn2_s() routines also per
form an LDAP modify RDN operation, taking the same parame
ters as above. In addition, they both take the deleteol
drdn parameter which is used as a boolean value to indi
cate whether the old RDN values should be deleted from the
entry or not.
ERRORS
The synchronous (_s) versions of these routines return an
LDAP error code, either LDAP_SUCCESS or an error if there
was trouble. The asynchronous versions return -1 in case
of trouble, setting the ld_errno field of ld. See
ldap_error(3) for more details.
