Hi Steve,

I could, but was hoping to use the distributed builds.

However, I have tracked it down to my password.
With an invalid password I get the SSL handshake and the Authentication
failed: 78.

So I tried leaving the password off the command line and entered the
password manually. Same result as the original problem.
Seems that my password triggers some issue in the Windows code, but NOT
in the Linux code.

I have tracked it down to a semi-colon in my password. Here are the
results of various combinations:
- password on command line, with semi-colon: A001 LOGOUT
- password on command line, without semi-colon: SSL handshake and
Authentication Failed: 78
- password entered manually, with semi-colon: A001 LOGOUT
- password entered manually, without semi-colon: SSL handshake and
Authentication Failed: 78

Can be repeated with an invalid username and a password of 'abc;def'

Time to change my password!!!

Cheers, Mark
