Problems with swat

[Vlad]

After emerging samba, and setting up xinetd to allow swat access, I run into this little problem (using lynx):

Alert!: Access without authorization denied -- retrying
Username for 'SWAT' at server 'localhost:901':

I put in root

Password:

I put in my password...

401 Bad Authorization

username or password incorrect


Anyone know a fix?

You need to add root as a samba user - look in the "desktop configuration guide" on the gentoo website under "samba" and you will find your answer.
