Thanks, when i first saw that reply I hid in the corner and didn't come
out for a while :)  Then I started playing and got it to work with
something like:

dn: dc=fake,dc=com,dc=au
objectclass: dcObject
objectclass: organization
o: Fake Org
dc: fake

Of course this was on the openldap quick setup guide which I overlooked
previously and all the other examples I found for it didn't do it like
that, hence the confusion.

Now to do something useful with all this ...
