You mean the admin user or cn=Directory Manager?  Note that the full 
bind DN for the former is usually something like this:
uid=admin,ou=Administrators,ou=TopologyManagement,o=NetscapeRoot

try ldapsearch -x -D 
"uid=admin,ou=Administrators,ou=TopologyManagement,o=NetscapeRoot" -w 
password -s base -b "cn=config" "objectclass=*"
