Hi,

We discovered a problem with Directory proxy 5.2 (compressed archive version). We have a common configuration directory server (in our topology) where the admin password (not Directory manager) is more than 8 character. Now when we install proxy 5.2 the installation program asks for admin ID/password to register itself (at o=netscaperoot branch), we give the admin-id/password correctly but the install program reports its incorrect (refer the output below). After some troubleshooting and installating another test Directory server (to be test config directory) with admin password equal to 8 character and then re-installating the Directory proxy 5.2 and using this test directory as configuration directory server, the installation does not report the same password issue.

Is there any fix/patch available for this problem.
