Adam (how could I not offer feedback to one with such a distinguished first
name),
rtrim() removes the characters contained in the second argument, it doesn't
split a string using them.
I would probably use strstr() if I didn't need the other sections, or, if I
needed the other sections for later, I'd use explode:
$your_string =
'CN=NTPRTPS3-LANIER-LD335c-LH107-PPRNP9A92,OU=XXf,OU=XX,OU=X,DC=,DC=xx,DC=xxx,';
echo strstr($haystack = $your_string, $needle = ',', $before_needle =
true);
if ($sections = explode($delimiter = ',', $string = $your_string)) echo
current($sections);

Whoops!
I realized in the explode example I had omitted the call to count (idea
being if you didn't find any comma's, maybe you need to handle those
situations differently):
if (count($sections = explode($delimiter = ',', $string = $your_string))
1) echo $sections[0];
Although, if it doesn't matter, you could just do:
echo current(explode(',', $your_string));
And, as mentioned above, strstr() is one simple call if you won't need the
other sections:
echo strstr($your_string, ',' true);

Check out substr() with strpos().
?php
$s =
'CN=NTPRTPS3-LANIER-LD335c-LH107-PPRNP9A92,OU=XXf,OU=XX,OU=X,DC=,DC=xx,DC=xxx';
if (substr($s,0,strpos($s,',')) ==
'CN=NTPRTPS3-LANIER-LD335c-LH107-PPRNP9A92') {
echo Good..PHP_EOL;
} else {
echo Bad..PHP_EOL;
}
?
