 +===== Common Name ===== 
 + 
 +CN and DN are used universally throughout LDAP and Microsoft'​s AD infrastructureincluding Exchange Server 2003 System Manager. ​ The DN is more specific, and should be used for the unique identifier of an object. ​ The CN is easier to parse, and can be used in a lot of cases. ​

 +The simplest LDAP lookup for a Common Name looks like: 
 +<​code>​ 
 +(cn=102 Philosophy) 
 +</​code>​ 
 +Multiple CN's can be looked up via the OR operator, "!", ​as such:
