cn=root is my directory manager account.

I'm using 389-console 1.1.7-0ubuntu1 on Kubuntu 12.04, but I have colleagues who
run the 389-console from the server (389-console-1.1.7-3.el5.noarch) and see the
same error.

These are the packages on the server, which is CentOS 5.7:
# rpm -qa 389-\*
389-admin-1.1.29-1.el5.x86_64
389-console-1.1.7-3.el5.noarch
389-ds-base-libs-1.2.10.4-5.el5.x86_64
389-admin-console-1.1.8-1.el5.noarch
389-ds-base-devel-1.2.10.4-5.el5.x86_64
389-ds-base-1.2.10.4-5.el5.x86_64
389-ds-console-1.2.6-1.el5.noarch
389-ds-console-doc-1.2.6-1.el5.noarch
389-adminutil-1.1.15-1.el5.x86_64
389-admin-console-doc-1.1.8-1.el5.noarch
389-adminutil-devel-1.1.15-1.el5.x86_64

I use the Apache Directory Studio for most of my general directory data
management.  I typically only use the 389-console for 389-specific configuration
changes.  The only other time I notice getting this message is when I first
click on the "Configuration" tab.  I am still able to change values and click
save them though.  I tested this by changing the max number of entries returned.
