<p>The <strong>ldap_rename()</strong> routine initiates an asynchronous modify
DN operation</p>
<p>In LDAP version 2, the <a href="ldap_modrdn.htm">ldap_modrdn()</a> API was
used to change the name of an LDAP entry. It could only be used to change the
least significant component of a name (the RDN or relative distinguished name).
The LDAP version 3 protocol provides the Modify DN protocol operation that
allows more general name change access. The <strong>ldap_rename()</strong>
routine is used to change the name of an entry. The <strong>
ldap_modrdn()</strong> routine is deprecated.</p>
<br>
<h3>Authorities and Locks</h3>
<p>No i5/OS authority is required. All authority checking is done by the LDAP
server.</p>
<br>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<dl>
<dt><em>ld</em></dt>
<dd>(Input) Specifies the LDAP pointer returned by a previous call to <a href=
"ldap_init.htm">ldap_init()</a>, <a href="ldap_ssl_init.htm">
ldap_ssl_init()</a>, or <a href="ldap_open.htm">ldap_open()</a>.</dd>
<dt><em>dn</em></dt>
<dd>(Input) Specifies the DN of the entry whose DN is to be changed.</dd>
<dt><em>newrdn</em></dt>
<dd>(Input) Specifies the new RDN to be given to the entry.</dd>
<dt><em>newparent</em></dt>
<dd>(Input) Specifies the new parent, or superior entry. If this parameter is
NULL, only the RDN of the entry is changed. The root DN may be specified by
passing a zero length string, "". The newparent parameter should always be NULL
when using version 2 of the LDAP protocol; otherwise the server's behavior is
undefined.</dd>
<dt><em>deleteoldrdn</em></dt>
<dd>(Input) Specifies a boolean value. When set to 1, the old RDN value is to
be deleted from the entry. When set to 0, the old RDN value should be retained
as a non-distinguished value. This parameter only has meaning if <em>
newrdn</em> is different from the old RDN.</dd>
<dt><em>serverctrls</em></dt>
<dd>(Input) Specifies a list of LDAP server controls. This parameter may be set
to null. See <a href="ldap_controls.htm">LDAP Controls</a> for more information
about server controls.</dd>
<dt><em>clientctrls</em></dt>
<dd>(Input) Specifies a list of LDAP client controls. This parameter may be set
to null. See <a href="ldap_controls.htm">LDAP Controls</a> for more information
about client controls.</dd>
<dt><em>msgidp</em></dt>
<dd>(Output) This result parameter is set to the message id of the request if
the <strong>ldap_rename()</strong> call succeeds.</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Return Value</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>LDAP_SUCCESS</strong></dt>
<dd>if the request was successfully sent. <strong>ldap_rename()</strong> places
the message id of the request in *<em>msgidp</em>. A subsequent call to <a
href="ldap_result.htm">ldap_result()</a> can be used to obtain the result of
the operation. Once the operation has completed, <strong>ldap_result()</strong>
returns a result that contains the status of the operation (in the form of an
error code). The error code indicates if the operation completed successfully.
The <a href="ldap_parse_result.htm">ldap_parse_result()</a> API is used to
check the error code in the result.<br>
<br>
</dd>
<dt><strong>another LDAP error code</strong></dt>
<dd>in case of an error.</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Error Conditions</h3>
<p>If <strong>ldap_rename()</strong> is not successful, an error code will be
returned. See <a href="ldap_error_condt.htm">LDAP Client API Error
Conditions</a> for possible LDAP error code values.</p>
<br>
<h3>Error Messages</h3>
<p>The following message may be sent from this function.</p>
<table width="100%" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
