Gets a copy of the distinguished name (DN) of the parent of an entry, unless the specified entry's DN is the suffix of the local database.
If you don't want to check if the entry's DN is the suffix of the local database, call the slapi_dn_beparent() function instead.
[??? Do we also want to document the ability to use this with DNS-style addresses? e.g., binky@groening.hell.com or bongo.hell.com? ???]
Syntax

Parameters
The function has the following parameters:
Returns
DN of the parent entry, or NULL if the specified DN is NULL, if the DN is an empty string, if the DN has no parent (for example, o=Airius.com), or if the specified DN is the suffix of the local database.
