\modulesynopsis{LDAP Distinguished Name handling.}

The \module{ldap.dn} module defines the following functions:

\begin{funcdesc}{escape_dn_chars}{s} % -> string

This function escapes characters in string \var{s} which
are special in LDAP distinguished names. You should use this function when
building LDAP DN strings from arbitrary input.
