From the perl LDAP FAQ:
Every entry in a directory has a Distinguished Name, or DN. It is a unique Entry identifier throughout the complete directory. No two Entries can have the same DN within the same directory. On the other hand, a relative distinguished name (RDN): Every DN is made up of a sequence of Relative Distinguished Names, or RDNs. The sequences of RDNs are separated by commas (,). In LDAPv2 semi-colons (;) were also allowed. There can be more than one identical RDN in a directory, but they must have different parent entries. I see your second point. However, I suppose it depends on how you're handling records -- in the event of marriage, for example, you could look at it as one LDAP entry being deleted and a new one created. That's fine if you don't care about tracking the history of name changes.
