openldap user

OpenLDAP: 2.4.43

I loaded the slapd.ldif config.
    $ sudo slapadd -F /etc/openldap/slapd.d -n 0 -l slapd.ldif

Then loaded an admin and users with the file contents below ...
    $ sudo slapadd -F /etc/openldap/slapd.d -v -l 1 init.ldif

--- init.ldif ---
## build the root node.
dn: dc=my,dc=domain,dc=org
objectClass: dcObject
objectClass: organization
dc: my domain
o: domain

dn: cn=manager,dc=my,dc=domain,dc=org
objectClass: organizationalRole
cn: admin
description: LDAP Admin

## build the users ou.
dn: ou=users,dc=my,dc=domain,dc=org
ou: users
objectClass: organizationalUnit
description: domain users

## build the groups ou.
dn: ou=groups,dc=my,dc=domain,dc=org
ou: groups
objectClass: organizationalUnit
description: domain groups

--- file end ---

Started slapd.
Tested with ...
   $ ldapsearch -x -b 'dc=my,dc=domain,dc=org' '(objectclass=*)'

... which returned the following ...
