    Have you included the "binddn" name in the query? This is the suffix "o=emass, 
c=US" you defined in slapd.conf. The search command would look like

    ldapsearch -b "o=emass, c=US" -h whatever_your_server_name_is "objectclass=*"

When slapd is built on a machine, the command tools are built with that suffix as well 
so it does not need to be specified when both the server and client are built from the 
same source.
    By using a different client this bit of extra info is required.
