I have tried with this search, and also using the userid that I am requesting the information from. So "uid=me,ou=people,dc=mydc" to get info on "uid=me,ou=people,dc=mydc"

ldapsearch -x -b 'ou=people,dc=mydc' -s sub -D 'cn=directory manager' -w <password> "objectclass=*" attrs="passwordExpWarned passwordExpirationTime"
Don't use attrs="..." Just specify them on the command line - ... "objectclass=*" passwordExpWarned passwordExpirationTime If you want all regular attributes plus the additional operational attributes, use "*" e.g.
ldapsearch .... "objectclass=*" \* passwordExpWarned passwordExpirationTime
ldapsearch --help
...
usage: ldapsearch [options] [filter [attributes...]]
where:
 filter        RFC-2254 compliant LDAP search filter
 attributes    whitespace-separated list of attribute descriptions

Note that openldap has a special attribute called "+" but this is not supported by Fedora DS.

    Can you post your exact ldapsearch command line?  Note that
    passwordexpirationtime and other password attributes in user
    entries are
    operational attributes - this means they are not retrieved by default
    with an LDAP search but must be explicitly listed in the list of
    attributes to retrieve.
