Bind but no succesful search

[Antoine Maartens <antoinem@ision.nl>]

Dear List,

My problem:
I can search my ldap database with ldapseach -x etc.

I added sasl-md5 authentication (although by default my server prefers 
OTP for reason or another) and when I search the database,  the logfile 
responds with:
\Apr 23 12:18:41 DELL slapd[28600]: conn=5 fd=9 ACCEPT from 
IP=10.7.0.3:33224 (IP=0.0.0.0:389)

Apr 23 12:18:43 DELL slapd[28602]: conn=5 op=3 UNBIND
Apr 23 12:18:43 DELL slapd[28602]: conn=5 fd=9 closed

I have the impression that binding to the database works.

However I get no usuable responds back to my query:
ldapsearch -U root@dell  -Y digest-md5 '(objectclass=*)' -b 
'dc=a1informatisering,dc=nl'

Here is my current slapd.conf:

# rootdn can always write!

I seem to be lacking the brainpower to get this product going properly.
