Although I would venture to guess it's possible with some sort of 
overlay, for communication directly over the protocol with stock 
OpenLDAP, nothing like this is supported. In other words, the client 
needs to supply all the initial values for a new entry. On the other 
hand, it's pretty easy to write a client that supplies default values 
for the attributes you want at creation time; I do this regularly in my 
apps.
