Here is an example of deleting a record in LDAP: ldapdelete -v -D'cn=Manager..' -w ${passwd} \
-h ${host} -p ${port}<<EOT
cn=….
EOT Effectively - you just need to supply the full DN. Also be aware you need to delete the lowest branch first, for example: uid=….
sales=…,uid=…. You need to delete sales first, then uid.

Use ldapmodify from command line. I might seem daunting to start with, but it is the best way. Plus you should perform a search with -L option, to take a backup to file.
