Yup, your right. The example on docs.sun.com however shows /etc/passwd
being added with no mention of the ou=People container:

"Use the ldapaddent command to add /etc/passwd entries to the server.
ldapaddent -D "cn=directory manager" -f /etc/passwd passwd"

I guess I would expect the example to work as shown in the dox, but I
may have screwed up the DIT setup somehow.

Thanks for the help.
