+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B ldap_delete_s()
+routine is used to perform an LDAP delete operation
+synchronously. It takes \fIdn\fP, the DN of the entry to be deleted.
+It returns an LDAP error code, indicating the success or failure of the
+operation.
+.LP
+The
+.B ldap_delete()
+routine is used to perform an LDAP delete operation
+asynchronously. It takes the same parameters as
+.BR ldap_delete_s(),
+but returns the message id of the request it initiated. The result of
+the delete can be obtained by a subsequent call to
+.BR ldap_result (3).
+.LP
+The
+.B ldap_delete_ext()
+routine  allows  server  and client controls to be 
+specified to extend the delete request. This routine is asynchronous like 
+ldap_delete(), but its return value is an LDAP error code. It stores the 
+message id of the request in the integer pointed to by msgidp.
+.LP
+The
+.B ldap_delete_ext_s()
+routine is the synchronous version of
+.BR ldap_delete_ext().
+It also returns an LDAP error code indicating success 
+or failure of the operation.
+.SH ERRORS
+.B ldap_delete_s()
+returns an LDAP error code which can be interpreted
+by calling one of
+.BR ldap_perror (3)
+and friends.
+.B ldap_delete()
+returns \-1 if something went wrong initiating the request. It returns the
+non-negative message id of the request if things went ok.
+.LP
+.B ldap_delete_ext()
+and
+.B ldap_delete_ext_s()
+return some Non-zero value if
+something  went wrong initiating the request, else return 0.
