Can Common Name be changed?
|
|
|
| Currently, I have user names defined as CN. Can the CN be changed to
accomodated user name changes through Perl Net::LDAP?
Error msg "DSID-030F0A34, problem 6004 (CANT_ON_RDN)" is generated
when I try to modify the CN. Is the only solution is to add a new
record under the new CN and remove the old record?

Yes.

No.
It would seem that your entries have an RDN of cn=<whatever>. In other
words, what you want to do is to rename your entries. The Net::LDAP method
to do that is called "moddn", and it is documented.
