Yes I created mine in the dse.ldif as well a while back. Though I put the
user into an LDIF file and used ldapmodify to add it.
cat replication_manager.ldif
dn: cn=replication manager,cn=config
objectClass: inetorgperson
objectClass: person
objectClass: top
cn: replication manager
sn: manager
userPassword: (cleartext password)
passwordExpirationTime: 20380119031407Z
nsIdleTimeout: 0
Stop dirsrv
ldapmodify -D "cn=directory manager" -W -f replication_manager.ldif
Start dirsrv
grep "dn: cn=replication manager" -A 15 /etc/dirsrv/slapd-kat-ds-02/dse.ldif
dn: cn=replication manager,cn=config
objectClass: inetorgperson
objectClass: person
objectClass: top
objectClass: organizationalPerson
cn: replication manager
sn: manager
passwordExpirationTime: 20380119031407Z
nsIdleTimeout: 0
userPassword:: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX==
creatorsName: cn=directory manager
modifiersName: cn=directory manager

However, although Red Hat recommends not storing simple user entries under
cn=config for performance reasons, it can be useful to store special user
entries such as the Directory Manager entry or replication manager
(supplier bind DN) entry under cn=config since this centralizes
configuration information.

1. Stop the Directory Server. If the server is not stopped, the
changes to the dse.ldif file will not be saved. See Section 1.3,
“Starting and Stopping
Servers”<https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Direct...
more information on stopping the server.
2. Create a new entry, such as cn=replication manager,cn=config, in
the dse.ldif file.
Ok. Please file a doc bug. We should not encourage people to edit the
dse.ldif when it is not necessary.
I cannot give the error message now, as I'm not at customer site. When I
get back to office, I will give the exact error.
Thanks.
