OK, I understand now. From LDAP point of view you cannot *modify* a
relative distinguished name by presenting the same rdn but you have to
*delete* the entry and recreate it. But this is not what you want.
What you actually want to do, is change or add an attribute value and
not change the RDN. I have just tested it and it seems to be a bug in
webadmin.
