[TriLUG] LDAP Question

I installed Directory Administrator and KDirAdmin

By setting up the Directory Administrator i was able to get KDirAdmin
working.

But now I have a question.  I am looking at the entries that the above
programs are creating and they have something like
uid=username,ou=people,o=organization,c=us

is this correct?, because the ones that I did by hand look like this.
cn=username,ou=people,o=organization,c=us


which way should it be? uid=username or cn=username
The reason that I ask is that the users that I create with these programs
can't login.  No user exists type of thing.

Any thoughts?
