Re: authentication failed, enter password

Please post a log file from working set up.
mckinneyalan@...

authentication failed, enter password

version 3.7.6 tries to connect and asks for the password. Type it in and continues to cycle asking for the password.

I installed version 4.3.9 and received the same results:

On one machine (windows XP) it works properly with version 3.7.6. On a windows 7 Ultimate computer it cycles asking fof the password. It had been working properly on this computer until today.



Below is the log file from the attempt on the windows 7 uplimate computer: Thanks in advance, on any help on how to proceed.
