Gnatsd user authentication problem...

[Seth Bridges]

Hi, I am having troubles getting gnatsd to upgrade my permissions when I 
login via telnet.

I am able to telnet to localhost:1529 and I am granted the default access 
set in $INSTDIR/etc/gnats/gnatsd.host_access (listdb for example).  
However, upon entering the command:

user <name> <passwd>

with <user> and <pw> set in $INSTDIR/com/gnatsdb/gnats-adm/gnatsd.access 
as:

anon:$0$pw:edit:

...I receive the message:

210-Now accessing GNATS database 'default'
210 User access level set to 'listdb'

____________________

Am I missing something obvious?  I have tried setting both the database 
specific gnatsd.access as well as the default copy, and nothing seems to 
work.  Ideas?

Thanks,
