Answer 1

You can add entries to the LDAP database in several ways. While slapd is running you can use ldapadd/ldapmodify to add entries. You can also use slapadd with an ldif file as well.

Read up on the usage of these tools and then come back with any question you may have afterwards.

You also need to understand how to construct a directory information tree in order to give some structure to the data you are storing in the LDAP database.

Answer 2

You can do it easily by using LDAPAdmin
