When you created the existing users, they were not added with the eduPerson objectclass since the schema didn't exist in FDS, so now only new users will automatically get it assuming your front end provides it, not sure what you are using since you said its not dirsrv-admin, you must have a way of adding new users, etc. Thats why its best to add the schema to FDS first, then start creating new users. The way I understand it, the schema only makes it possible for an ldap server to allow the extra feature, but its the user (object) that has its necessary objectclasses assigned to it, for each objectclass, you can assign the values and attributes. For example: samba requires adding the samba schema into FDS, then each user needs to have the "sambasamaccount" objectclass which has numerous values that samba accounts use. I was new with ldap not long ago too, hope this helps..
