(Did Not Work For me...) RE: Error Code 32 - No such object ?

["Jitender Bhatia" <jbhatia@Yantra.com>]

I get the following error :

$ ldapadd -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com" -W -f top.ldif
Enter LDAP Password: <I have no password set, so i just press enter>
adding new entry "dc=my-domain,dc=com"
ldap_add: Insufficient access

ldif_record() = 50

Is it that the record is already there ? Or do i have permission problems ?
This is a Redhat Linux machine, and i am logged in as a user who did not install ldap there.

Thanks

    It seems you haven't created an entry for your top object 
(dc=my-domain,dc=com). Create a file called top.ldif with the following:

dn: dc=my-domain,dc=com
objectClass: dcObject
objectClass: organization
dc: my-domain
description: My domain description
o: My domain

    and then ldapadd -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com" -W -f top.ldif
