Hi, Brian, Yes, I looked at the manpage, but I still didn't get it. Maybe I'm too stupid.
I wanna delete the DN, i.e., "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com", I added into the directory. So, according to the example in the manpage, I should just do ldapdelete "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" "-x -w secret" is just for simple authentication. So, you mean I should do sth like ldapdelete -D "dc=example,dc=com" "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" I tried, but still get ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49) Thanks a lot!
