What version of DS?  What platform?

Are you sure you are searching your configuration directory server?  Do 
you have more than one directory server?

Do you have anything under o=NetscapeRoot?

/usr/bin/ldapsearch -x -b o=netscaperoot -D "cn=directory manager" -w xxxx "objectclass=*"


What's in /etc/dirsrv/admin-serv/adm.conf?
