organization does not allow 'dc'.  You likely should add:
  objectclass: dcObject

allow?  "is" would be a more appropriate question.  You
can determine what object classes an object is by examining
the objectClass attribute contained within the object.

When using slapadd, you have to examine the configuration
file to determine the controlling subschema.  slapd supports
only one controlling subschema as defined directives in the
*.schema files normally included by slapd.conf.

When using ldapadd, you must use the subschemaSubentry
discovery mechanism (see the archives).
