Rename Entry dialog

The Rename Entry dialog is used to rename an entry. In detail the relative distinguished name (RDN) is modified by sending a modrdn operation to the directory.

To start the Rename Entry dialog select the entry you want to rename, then choose Rename... from context menu or press F2.

Note: Some directories doesn't support renaming whole trees but only renaming leaf entries. Also it is not possible to delete base entries or the Root DSE.
