alone will print a line from /etc/passwd that matches ^$user. What does that line have to do with logical if test?
You are missing backticks and operator there.
Code:
if [ X`grep "^$user" /etc/passwd` != X ] ; then #user found in /etc/passwd

slapd-passwd
SLAPD-PASSWD(5) File Formats Manual SLAPD-PASSWD(5)NAME
slapd-passwd - /etc/passwd backend to slapd
SYNOPSIS
/etc/openldap/slapd.conf
DESCRIPTION
The PASSWD backend to slapd(8) serves up the user account information listed in the system passwd(5) file. This backend is provided for
demonstration purposes only. The DN of each entry is "uid=<username>,<suffix>". Note that non-base searches scan the the entire passwd
file, and are best suited for hosts with small passwd files.
CONFIGURATION
This slapd.conf option applies to the PASSWD backend database. That is, it must follow a "database passwd" line and come before any subse-
quent "backend" or "database" lines. Other database options are described in the slapd.conf(5) manual page.
file <filename>
Specifies an alternate passwd file to use. The default is /etc/passwd.
FILES
/etc/openldap/slapd.conf
default slapd configuration file
/etc/passwd
