No Serious, it could mean a lot of things, did you try just entering from the login prompt?
Login: root Password: <Hit enter here>
You might accidently changed it, someone might have changed it, it was unset, you were toying with vipw, and dozens options more ;-)
Perhaps you should boot into single user mode, remount the / (readwrite) and use passwd root
BTW: Where are you seeing this message? Remote ROOT logins are denied by default..
Cheers

Alright I have recently installed BSD onto my computer as one of the OS systems to dual boot. However, recently the root usner name and password, when entered correctly or incorrectly, does not login. It gives me the message of Incorrect password or usnername. Why has this suddenly started occurring and how do I fix this?
Thanks
