Hello, I have FreeBSD 4.0 installed on my 486, and I noticed an
interesting problem.  I switched from csh to bsh, and now, for some
reason, every first time I log in as root it rejects my password, but
the second time it always accepts it.  This has happened repeatedly.  I
was recently "messing" around with the chmod command with my /root dir,
does that have anything to do with it? Is there a "quick" fix I can use
in order for this login error to disappear?

Thanks in advance
