Tried it, like so:  ldappasswd -x -D
uid=testuser,ou=People,dc=mydomain,dc=com

And I tried: ldappasswd -x -D uid=testuser,ou=People,dc=mydomain,dc=com -w
newpassword

And I get this error each time: "additional info: unauthenticated bind (DN
with no password) disallowed"

Which means that the user can't change their own password, so I'm back to
where I started. 

I have this in my slapd.conf file:

Are you intending to use SASL?  If not, you simply are misusing
ldappasswd(1).  Read the manual page, especially the part about the - x
option.

Are you intending to use SASL?  Assuming not, you simply are misusing
ldappasswd(1).  You need to specify -x for ldappasswd(1) to perform a simple
DN/password authentication.  See the ldappasswd(1) for details.
