Hmm.  Just setup a new box with FreeBSD 2.2.2-Release from the Walnut
Creek CD-ROM site, and (after discovering that the configuration files
have changed in this version <g>!) I'm having a problem with errors.

Upon login, syslog says:

login:  login_getclass:  Unknown class 'root'

And, periodically, syslog notes:

inetd(###): login_getclass:  Unknown class 'root'

What does this mean?  How should I fix it?
