This is misleading because it implies that you have to "do something" in 
the configuration Sun DS 5.2 replication.  Sun DS 5.2 should just work - 
it should just automatically detect an older version.

You shouldn't have to do anything special.  389 (regular replication, 
not legacy or other) should just replicate with Sun DS 5.2 (regular 
replication, nothing special).
