Error saving an ActiveLDAP user

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Set up a class (LdapUser) mapping to an inetOrgPerson
2. Use LdapUser.find("brad") to get a user
3. Set something like user.surname = "test"
4. Call user.save

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I would like it to save back to server without error.  Instead I am 
getting this error:

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Gem 1.0.9 on OS X 10.5

Please provide any additional information below.
