That is a pretty lame comment. I have been working at this for more than a day. I mentioned that I have tried the username and password and have logged on successfully, using a browser. I used cut and paste, just to make sure that there was no spelling error. So, that obviously is not the reason. Try again.

DEBUG seemed to add no further explanations

PS: Sorry, I apologize for snapping back, but I was tired. The error obviously says bad username/passsword, so that is the first place anyone is going to look. But still, I remember laughing at the step-by-step instructions to troubleshoot problems with computers:

Step 1: Check to see if it is plugged in.

Step 2: Check the switch to see if it is on.

Step 3: Turn the switch off, and now see it the computer turns on!

... and then I remember that this advice turned out to be helpful :).

So, if the computer error says that there is a bad username/password, then very likely that is what it is. Just "how?" is the question. And I have tried all the straightforward ways I could think of.
