Apologies I sent that too quick. ``organizationalPerson'' has too
required attributes as well, ``sn'' and ``cn''.
See: http://ldap.akbkhome.com/objectclass/organizationalPerson.html

dn: cn=John Doe, ou=people, dc=gmsg, dc=co, dc=za
cn: John Doe
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: posixAccount
sn: Joe
uid: jdoe
uidNumber: 1001
gidNumber: 100
homeDirectory: /home/jdoe
userPassword: password
loginShell: /bin/sh

Something like the above should work.
