<h1>Module HowTo - Defining the RDN<br>
</h1>
<div style="text-align: left;"><br>
Every LDAP DN starts with a RDN (relative DN). This is the value of a
LDAP attribute. Users usually use "uid", groups use "cn".<br>
You can provide a list of suitable RDN attributes for your module and
give them a priority, too.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">You will need to implement the function <span
style="font-weight: bold;">get_RDNAttributes()</span> or use <span
style="font-weight: bold;">meta['RDN']</span>.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">Example:</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">
<br>
The <span style="font-style: italic;">posixAccount</span> module
offers to create accounts with DNs uid=foo,dc=.... and cn=foo,dc=...<br>
The uid attribute has a higher priority as it is the usual attribute
for Unix accounts.<br>
