I decide to add the missing structural object:

ldapadd -h localhost -p 3890 -f missing.ldif -D "..." -w "..."

with missing.ldif:

dn: ou=Authentication,o=UNI-C,c=DK ou: Authentication objectClass: organizationalUnit

Result:

adding new entry "ou=Authentication,o=UNI-C,c=DK" ldap_add: Already exists (68)

And this log-entry:

You cannot use ldapadd on already existing entry. You need to do an ldapmod.
