Client did an LDAPv3 bind.

The slapd sent back a error.  The client should either do a v2 bind or
an unbind.

A new connect...   apparently the client creates a new session
(which is unnecessary) and orphans the old session.

As the client really should be fixed, I suggest users of this client
submit bug report to the client developers.
