Fedora directory users - Jul 2006 - command line not working

newbie
I was able to set up directory server and import the Example.ldif into 
the server (using console).  But whenever I try and do a command line 
modify,delete or search I get the following errors.
My server was set up to run on port 42645 and I also tried port 389.
This is my second install the first was typical and the second was 
express.  I must have missed something in the documentation.

[root@station100 ldif]# ldapdelete -D "cn=Directory Manager, 
dc=example,dc=com"-wpassword -h station100 -p 42645 "cn=Ted 
Morris,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com"
ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Local error (-2)
[root@station100 ldif]# ldapdelete -D "cn=Directory Manager, 
dc=example,dc=com"-wpassword -h station100 -p 389 "cn=Ted 
Morris,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com"
SASL/EXTERNAL authentication started
ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Unknown authentication method (-6)
        additional info: SASL(-4): no mechanism available:

Are you using the utilities from FDS, or the OpenLDAP ones?   If the
ones from OpenLDAP, you can try adding "-x" to the command line to use
simple authentication.

Ah yes, seems to work much better now.  I was wondering how this worked 
since I thought ldap* commands were tied to /etc/openldap/ldap.conf.  I 
still haven''t figured out where these commands are connected to, but I 
guess as I go through this I''ll figure it out. On to page 81 of 
ds71admin.pdf.

Thanks
