Yast2 authentication fails

Hi

Whenever I 'press' the Yast2 icon on my panel I get a window called
'root permission' asking me to enter the root password.

After entering the (correct) password Yast2 launches and I am able to do
anything which requires root permission but the 'root permission' window
shows the following message:
Password:
Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason :
None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and
host-based authentication failed

Is this something I should be concerned about?

TIA
