This is incorrect.

Note that you MUST start at the point defined in your slapd.conf! (Note
the RFC use of MUST.)

So in my case I started at vanderkooij.org (the domain name I own).

Like:

dn: dc=vanderkooij,dc=org
objectclass: top
objectclass: dcObject
dc: vanderkooij.org

dn: cn=Manager,dc=vanderkooij,dc=org
objectclass: top
objectclass: person
cn: Manager
sn: Manager
description: OpenLDAP postmaster <postmaster@vanderkooij.org>

....

You have to start similar. I suggest you also do some reading on LDAP. In
the OpenLDAP article on my homepage you will find some links you may find
usefull.
