[389-users] management console authentication error

[Mark Reynolds]

Herb,

Do you know which server is hosting the config data for the 
console(o=netscaperoot)?  If you do, please provide the access log 
output showing the "cn=directory manager" and "admin" binds?  It might 
not hurt to restart the admin server.

Thanks,
Mark
