Yes.  By default, Fedora DS setup will create some organizational 
entries for you.  If you do not want to do this, you can run setup in 
Custom mode and tell it to not add these entries.

So, "typical" can actually be a bad setting to choose...possibly a
simple explanation inside the setup script (unless its there and I
missed it).

Think I will spend the day writing up my own notes...the RDS and FDS
manuals obviously don't come down to my level.

Try changing your identity in the console to cn=Directory Manager.  
Under the File menu, select the option to login as another user.  Or use

the Tasks tab - there is a button there to do the same thing.

Yes, I had the user in the wrong place because of this. When I deleted
the user and re-created "people" with the "user" as a member and fixed
the posix issue it worked.

Thanks for your efforts....I was going to give up today and go back to
open-ldap...
