Overview
The LDAP-UX Client Services provides the Mozilla LDAP C SDK 5.14.1
support. The LDAP C SDK is a Software Development Kit that contains
a set of LDAP Application Programming Interfaces (API) to allow you to
build LDAP-enabled clients. The functionality implemented in the SDK
closely follows the interface outlined in RFC 2251. Using the
functionality provided with the SDK, you can enable your clients to
connect to LDAP v3-compliant servers and perform the LDAP functions.
The API functions provided by the Netscape LDAP C SDK allow you to
perform the following major LDAP operations:
• Search for retrieving a list of entries
• Add new entries to the directory
• Update existing entries
• Delete entries
• Rename entries
NOTE For the detailed information on how to use the LDAP API functions
contained in the Mozilla SDK for C, and how to enable your client
applications to connect to the LDAP servers, refer to Mozilla LDAP C
SDK Programmer’s Guide at
