Currently, you'd need to give the whole dn for both trees, e.g.
ou=people,dc=uni-osnabrueck,dc=de
though it is more reasonable to set it up your way (or autodetect).
Until the release we will have better documentated settings.

I will check this.

The backend should use the standard base dn instead, probably setting it 
back to blank fails. I will check this as well.

Thanks four your (both Dirk and Thomas) reports.
