Cisco Network Assistant MAC auth issue

Question

I have few Autonomous Access Points all managed by the Cisco Network Assistant. Users have access to wireless only based on MAC authentication.
Every once in a while the wireless access to the Access-Point fails and the following error is showed in the Cisco Network Assistant.
ERROR: The MAC address filter 700 used for association access was not created by the web interface and cannot be displayed.
also
WARNING: Filter 700 was configured on interface Dot11radio 0.170 using CLI. It must be cleared via CLI to ensure proper operation of the web interface.
The Network Admin does not use CLI but this problem keeps coming. To fix this problem I had cleared the access-list 700 via CLI and created a new access-list 700 via Cisco Network Assistant. Adding all the MAC's each time the network goes down is a cumbersome process. Is there a solution for this?
Thanks in advance
error snapshot attached.

I have some site admins that use CNA.  I just upgraded their LAN to 3560v2 switches running 12.2(58)SE2 and had them upgrade their CNA software to CNA 5.7(6).  They reported the same error.
I think you clearly indentified the problem.  At one time the IOS command parser accepted both "show mac-address" and "show mac address".  At some point IOS stopped accepting the older "show mac-address" format, and CNA is still issuing this command regardless of the IOS version it is trying to manage.
