First, you have to add the appropriate index configuration lines to your
slapd.conf. 

If you already have your entries stored in the databse, you have to create
the initial index file manually using ldif2index. slapd will only index
new entries automatically. Thus, your queries won't return anything if you
turn indexing on on an existing database.
