It is. The 'password' file should be in the etc/webadmin directory. And one more thing - check that your webadmin binary has the correct permissions and ownership (has to be owned by the group bin if I am not mistaken). I remember trying this a while ago and only copying webadmin into the cgi-bin directory without '-a'. And the problem was exactly the same as if there was no 'unsecureok' file.
Hope this helps.
