   I added  "database monitor" directive to slapd.conf.

 Then the result are follows:
[root@ncins1 openldap]# ldapsearch -x -H ldap://:6666 -b 
cn=Overlays,cn=Monitor

#
# LDAPv3
# base <cn=Overlays,cn=Monitor> with scope subtree
# filter: (objectclass=*)
# requesting: ALL

# Overlays, Monitor
dn: cn=Overlays,cn=Monitor
objectClass: monitorContainer
cn: Overlays

  [root@ncins1 openldap]# ldapsearch -x -H ldap://:6666 -b 
cn=Databases,cn=Monitor '(monitorOverlay=ppolicy)' '*' '+'
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <cn=Databases,cn=Monitor> with scope subtree

# search result

 Why there is  a difference between your  output and mine.
  Can I assume  that ppolicy overlay is loaded fine.
   But still if I put the line moduleload ppolicy.la in the slapd.conf 
it says file not found and stoping slapd.
   My compile options are below:
  configure
--enable-syslog \
--enable-crypt \
--enable-modules \
--enable-rewrite \
--enable-wrapers \
--enable-backends \
--enable-overlays \
--enable-slurpd

  Also  I put a password length or 6 characters
  Still I am able to change password to 3 charactors.

  Thanks for your help again.
