Ahhh good to know, I'm pretty impatient and wanted the updates now.

Well I used my script to setup a MMR agreement between 2 servers. Then a consumer read only agreement on those 2 servers to a third server. Replication is working over all the servers. With one really odd quirk. When I open up the console, goto the configuration tab -> Replication -> userRoot. Then I click on one of the rep agreements I get an insufficient permissions error (I'm logging in as cn=Directory Manager).
I click ok, get prompted for a username and password (cn=Directory Manager is already in the username box). I just click cancel and it lets me continue to view/edit/delete the rep agreement.
I restarted the server, same issue.
There aren't any err= messages in the access log and the error log doesn't have any info about the message either.
Here is the rep agreement straight from the dse.ldif file
