Hello, I am a newbie. Trying to learn ldap. Is it possible to add second admin user to openldap? Like manager/admin?

If yes, please post the ldif entry.

If this is a wrong forum please let me know where I can post it?

You should only specify one rootDN per database.

You could, if appropriate, map more than one authc identity to your rootDN (via authz-regexp entries). However, consider reserving rootDN access for exceptional cases, and configure multiple administrative users with write access to your database(s) via properly configured ACLs.

See chapter 8 of the OpenLDAP Admin Guide.
