They both take \fIdn\fP, the DN of the entry whose RDN is to be changed, and \fInewrdn\fP, the new RDN to give the entry. The old RDN of the entry is never kept as an attribute of the entry. .B ldap_modrdn() is asynchronous, returning the message id of the operation it initiates. .B 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. .LP The .B ldap_modrdn2() and .B ldap_modrdn2_s() routines also perform an LDAP modify RDN operation, taking the same parameters as above. In addition, they both take the \fIdeleteoldrdn\fP parameter which is used as a boolean value to indicate whether the old RDN values should be deleted from the entry or not. .SH 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 .B ld_errno field of \fIld\fP.
