Manual User Registrations register with WP not S2

I'm a fan of s2Member, though I've strayed and used another membership plug-in looking for some broader shopping cart functionality. Alas, I'm back.
When I reactivated s2 (with updates), all the manual test user registrations I've done through the dashboard are not being recognized by s2Member when I attempt to log in to the content site. The link in the confirmation email proceeds to log into the WP login screen rather than S2Member's form.
I have been assigning the role as s2Member Level 1 (rather than a WordPress role).
I'm running WP 3.1 as a Network, running s2 v. 3.5.7 and have s2 set up on one of the sub-blogs (network activated, though I've tried it both ways with the same outcome). I have updated the patches since my core WP update.
In a tight spot because I was planning to open registration tomorrow. Lesson learned about expecting to just flip it back on. Ah well.
Any help would be hugely appreciated.
