Package: swat Version: 3.0.22-1 Severity: important
debian-installer now offers the option to disable the root account and grant a normal user full sudo priviledges instead. With such a setup swat is not usable, since it seems to insist on a login with username 'root' + root's unix password. Extensive googling seems to suggest that swat authenticates against the samba passwords -- at the moment it does not, but I like the idea. Please provide some way for logging in to swat as admin without having to have a root account. This would have the added benefit that people who one don't have to transmit the password in the clear.
