When I try to do this ldapadd -x -D "cn=admin,dc=<test>,dc=<ekool>,dc=<ee>" -W -f init.ldif ldap_bind: Invalid DN syntax (34) additional info: invalid DN

"<" and ">" need to be escaped in DNs: 'cn=admin,dc=<test>,dc=<ekool>,dc=<ee>' or 'cn=admin,dc=\3Ctest\3E,dc=\3Cekool\3E,dc=\3Cee\3E' (Remember to use double \ if you use a quoting type like "" which treats \ as an escape character.)

But I don't know how you've managed to create that database and start slapd with it if you didn't know this already.
