Try the following:

ldapsearch -LLL -x -h <hostname> -b "cn=Hi,o=MyORG" -s base\ 
subschemasubentry

For OpenLDAP slapd, this yields:
dn: cn=Hi,o=MyORG
subschemaSubentry: cn=Subschema

This means, that the schema information for the entry "cn=Hi,o=MyORG" is 
stored in "cn=Subschema" (btw. slapd stores schema info for all entries 
in cn=Subschema, but (I think) there is no guarantee that this will 
never change).

Now we can do the following:

ldapsearch -x -h <hostname> -b "cn=Subschema" -s base <Type>

where <Type> is one of objectClasses, attributeTypes, matchingRules, 
ldapSyntaxes.

Hope that helps,

Hans
