How did you create your directory server instances?  Usually the first 
one you create is your Configuration Directory Server, the one the 
console uses as sort of a network registry (the o=NetscapeRoot suffix).  
Subsequent directory server instance creation should use this one 
instead of creating a new Config DS.  The setup program should give you 
these options.
