Bruno:

Thanks a lot, I modified the ldif file adding (at the top):

dn: dc=tux,dc=org
objectClass: top
objectClass: domain
dc: tux
description: a description

And now all is OK.

What is objectclasses top and domain?
If you dont have time to respond where can I find good (and if possible 
not too much extensive) doc about this?

Again thanks to you and all the people responding to this.
