Fedora directory users - Mar 2006 - NumberFormatException from Fedora console

Hi all,

I am trying to connect to a v1.0.2 admin server via a v1.0.1 FDS console 
(still to be upgraded), and I am getting a NumberFormatException as 
described at:

https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-directory-users/2005-December/msg00442.html

I see no followups to this message, has anybody else encountered this 
problem, and if so, were there any fixes to it?

Regards,
Graham
