The current implementation of Random Forests looks good indeed. My latest tests on NSL-KDD (http://nsl.cs.unb.ca/NSL-KDD/) shows similar recognition rates such as those reported in the paper. After the release of Mahout 0.3 (and the end of the current code freeze), I should post some additions, for example saving the training decision forest and use it to classify test datasets. And will also post a detailed description of the results on NSL-KDD.
