nnmaster root problems

I'm having some problems installing the nn client on our system here.
I was given root access for a day to do it (i work for the system)
and i sinstalled it using root as the user and bin as the group.
I then changed the config .h file to reflect this.  I install it
and chown the files too root and gh...chgrp the files to bin group.
Now when i attempt to run nnmaster to just initiallize the database
(option INIT on inst program) it tells me that i have called 
nnmaster with the wrong priviledges.
I though root could do anything? It wouldn't run nnmaster at all.
When i compiled it on my local directory to error test it it worked
fine and is still running as i type.  But when root tries to run the
same program installed for it it worn't work.

any ideas?
