Can you expand on the "...tell it the DN..." part there?

I misspoke. When you configure the pam_lookup_policy keyword pam_ldap will do an anonymous search in the rootDSE with a filter (objectclass=passwordPolicy) and use what it finds there. So the only requirement is that you give anonymous enough privileges to perform the search.
