Brand new install and Swat will not accept root passwd????

[Lanny Baron]

Hello Fellow Samba users,

I have a question. I installed today, FreeBSD 3.1 and put Samba 
2.0.3 on. When I compiled Samba, did cat /etc/passwd | 
mksmbpaswd.sh > /usr/local/samba/private/smbpasswd and then 
did smbpasswd -a root  and entered passwd ( no different than 
original passwd). I can start swat but when it asks for username 
and passwd, it fails to authenticate me.

My root passwd is correct. 

Any help?

Thanks in advance,

Lanny Baron
