First of all, you didn't mention what version of OpenLDAP you're using.
Anyway, for 2.0-tree of OpenLDAP you can read about access-control here:
http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin20/slapdconfig.html#Access%20Control
and  here for the 2.1-tree
http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin21/slapdconfig.html#Access%20Control

as for adding users and more on access you could read this tutorial:
http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialLDAP-BindPW.html

A good hint would also be to try a little google'ing :-) you could find
these pages for yourself.
