Thanks Emmanuel,

I did the right-click thing to "Create New Context" selecting "domain" from the list of "Available 
object classes" and entered "dc=example,dc=com" when prompted to enter a "Distinguished Name".  
Excellent.  My DIT now shows dc=example,dc.com.

I was under the impression that it would just show up with a bunch of users 
configured, but I'm now guessing that is not the case.  I must have to build 
this branch up myself.  You wouldn't know of an LDIF file anywhere that could 
jump-start this process would you?

In any event, thanks so much for your help.

Bob

I am having difficulty figuring out why my deployment of apacheds-1.5.5 doesn't seem to have dc=example,dc=com branch that appears in all the documentation. The deployment and startup of apacheds-1.5.5 to my machine went without a hitch. I have confirmed that the service is up and running and have successfully connected to it with the Apache Directory Studio as "uid=admin,ou=system" using Simple Authentication. The problem is that the resulting DIT in the LDAP browser shows only...
DIT
Root DSE (3)
  ou=schema (18)
  ou=system (5)

...the entry dc=example,dc=com that appears in all the documentation is absent.

My server.xml appears to have the partition for it...
  <partitions>
<jdbmPartition id="example" cacheSize="100" suffix="dc=example,dc=com" optimizerEnabled="true" syncOnWrite="true">
...

Does dc=example,dc=com not exist or can my user "admin" just not see it based upon how I set up the connection? The (3) on the end of "Root DSE" node would suggest that is the case, but I can't figure out what I need to do to reveal this branch. How I can get a Directory Studio user connected to my LDAP server in such a way as to browse the dc=example,dc=com tree? Any ideas?
You have to create the associated entry (the context entry).

Just right click on the root of the tree, and select the Create Contect Entry (something like that). I think it's explained somewhere on the web site :

http://directory.apache.org/apacheds/1.5/144-adding-your-own-partition-resp-suffix.html (around the middle of this page).

Not very explicit though ...
