    Oops. I apologize for all the questions when you already provided most of the 
information. I missed them earlier.

    The "ldapadd" command needs:
- a "-D" option as well as the password. (Is your password really "password"?)
  It is the one called "rootdn" in slapd.conf.
- a "-b" option to specify the base DN, which is the one you defined in
  slapd.conf called "suffix".
