You need to grant write access privilege to the entry itself. Modify your
/etc/openldap/slapd.conf and add a line likes this:

access to dn=".*,ou=People,dc=your-domain,dc=com" by self write by * read

This will grant write access to the entry itself, everybody else can read.

It's just an example. Refer to ldap guide to improve security for your
server.
