RE: Modify only one attribute that has multiple values of the same name

[Brian Gaber]

Or should the syntax be:

$del_mesg = $ldap->modify( $dn,
   delete => {
      SFTrule => [
        "$value"           # Remove only this SFTrule value
      ],
   }
);

This produces a LDAP Error Code: 16 - modify/delete: SFTrule: no such value

Would this be the correct Net::LDAP syntax to delete the particular multivalued 
attribute?

$del_mesg = $ldap->modify( $dn,
   delete => {
      member      => [
        "SFTrule=$value"           # Remove only this member
      ],
   }
);

I ask because I am getting this error:

LDAP Error Code: 21 - member: value #0 invalid per syntax

Thanks.

In pure ldif:

dn: existing dn
changetype: modify
delete: SFTrule
SFTrule: old value
-
add: SFTrule
SFTrule: new value
-
