Try your birth date.  Or the password associated to the identity you're
using.  Unfortunately I don't know what identity you're using.

p.
 
I mean "what kind of password", not "what password". I'm using my RootDN user.
 
I'm using
 
cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com
password -> secret
 
(i think that when you talk about an "identity" you mean a DN, and this is the account i use to login to the OpenLDAP server from the servers i'm working with, and it works)
 
the command i used is:
 
ldapadd -f oufile.ldif -D "cn=Manager,dc=intranet,dc=techno,dc=com" -w secret
 
(all the dn, cn, dc, password and filenames are ficticious, of course)
