You probably ran slapadd whle slapd was running. You're supposed to use
slapadd only if you know what you're doing, ldapadd is the right client
for day to day activity.
now i'm using ldapadd, and it wants me to enter a password... i tryed my RootDN password but it don't works... any idea of what kind of password it demands?

not a big deal for testing, but in real life you should definitely
configure DB_CONFIG. For instructions, read Berkeley DB documentation,
the Admin Guide and the FAQ.

You're adding (again probably with slapadd) an entry that already
exists. Use ldapadd.
