Re:Decent OSS LDAP browser?
Have you tried GQ?

Re:Does OpenLDAP even work?
Sound a lot like GQ. Unfortunately, GQ doesn't appear to be actively maintained.

GQ is also worth a look
Its `a graphical browser for LDAP directories and schemas. Using GQ, an administrator can search through a directory and modify objects stored
in that directory'
It comes as Red Hat's standard LDAP admin tool. Get it here. Its not as good be, but neither is directory administrator the last time I looked. -
Nice LDAP Admin Tool
I used to think that there were no good LDAP tools either. I then discovered GQ. I know that you said you prefer web or console, but this little X/GTK beauty is perfect for LDAP administration. I used it all of the time to add users, modify users, and to delete users.

Re:my preferred LDAP browserFor a gtk+ GUI LDAP brwoser, gq (http://biot.com/gq/) would probably be what you want.
For a command-line add/modify/delete utility, here's one I created:

linux/unix LDAP user tools
checkout:
directory_administrator which is a GNOME LDAP user admin tool (slick enough for use by a frontline helpdesk).
there are other LDAP GUI's, KDE has one. search freshmeat.
gq a general purpose LDAP GUI tool. quite slick, comes with RH7.x.
Also, note that with RH7, the 'passwd' tool uses pam and will hence automatically work with LDAP authentication. (presuming your LDAP server is configured correctly for write access).
finally, you'll probaby want to develop your own scripts with template LDIF's for things like useradd, or find someone who's already done so. (i noticed there's a post on this thread providing a link to exactly that.) Note that for scripting, PADL's migration scripts are very informative. These are included with the OpenLDAP distribution. -
GTK based LDAP browser
I use GQ for browsing around in an LDAP. It is a great start on a fully functional LDAP client tool, but still, many options still need to be implemented.
