I am having problem with the current port of popassd and FreeBSD 2.2-BETA

here is the text of a telnet session into port 106


  connected to rodent.infoweb.com.au.
  Escape character is '^]'.
  200 poppassd v1.2 hello who are you?
  user ernie
  200 your password please.
  pass free-bsd
  200 your new password please.
  newpass cpm-68k
  500 Unable to change password.
  Connection closed by foreign host.


The correct entries are in /etc/services and inetd.conf as per the man page
otherwise the daemon would not have launched. I have tried it on a 2.1.6
machine as well with the same result.

Any suggestions?

- Ernie.
