change the dot after Manager to a comma.
>>ldapadd -x -D "cn=Manager.dc=pucsd,dc=com" -W -f example.ldif

Are you using slappasswd?
That's a "bad password" error. Do you actually have the line
passwd secret
in your slapd.conf file?
You need to replace the word "secret" with the output of a slappasswd command, as detailed in the documentation and man pages of slapd.conf and slappasswd.
For example, if you want your password to be "pastfarian", you type
slappasswd -s pastfarian
and it returns
{SSHA}nGLy56L1qUD6brnoV9m5ufYumTy05YIt
If you really want to put a cleartext password in there, which is a bad idea, you'd use the syntax
passwd {cleartext}secret
Hope this helps,
--Charlie

I got that error when the password didn't match in the admintools.conf file. Make sure they match.
