well, it may also show that the identity you use doesn't have disclose
access below the cn=monitor tree, or you compiled OpenLDAP software
without the monitor overlay (is it yet possible?) or you didn't enable
it by adding the "database monitor" directive to slapd.conf.

If you do, and slapd starts without complaining too much, then it's
loaded.
