I've been using the Symas OpenLDAP debian packages, and following the
Quick-Start guide for 2.5:
https://www.openldap.org/doc/admin25/quickstart.html

Following steps 1 - 10 has been straight forward, but when I get to step 11
(Add initial entries to your directory), I run into trouble when running
the ldapadd command:

root@openldap-x:/opt/symas/etc/openldap# ldapadd -x -D
"cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" -W -f bootstrap.ldif
Enter LDAP Password:
ldap_bind: Confidentiality required (13)
additional info: confidentiality required
root@openldap-x:/opt/symas/etc/openldap#


I used the provided slapd.ldif.default to seed the cn=config (updating it
with the appropriate domain components), as per the instructions in the
Quick-Start, so slapd isn't yet configured to run with ssl or starttls. Is
there a default SSF factor that I should adjust to get past this
bootstrapping failure? I don't see anything like that explicitly set in the
configs that were rendered into /opt/symas/etc/openldap/slapd.d, from my
slapd.ldif.

I'm not new to openldap, but this is the first time I've used the Symas
packages and also the first time trying to use olc instead of a slapd.conf
based configuration.
