While using the "cn=config" configuration, I found that "cn=config" is also the default olcRootDN. By just configuring a olcRootPW , login to the config database is possible using "cn=config" and the configured olcRootPW. This default should be documented in the admin guide, etc.

IRC user hyc on #openldap mentioned "it's been the default since 2005", but "I can't find the reference either, perhaps we lost it."
