It would help if you paid attention and reported *exactly* what you typed and 
*exactly* what output you got from each command. For example, it is 
*impossible* for this command:
   ldappasswd -x -D cn=annem,dc=mydomain,dc=com -w newpassword
to return this result:
 "additional info: unauthenticated bind (DN with no password) disallowed"

Nobody can possibly help you when you supply incorrect information about what 
you're doing.
