Hi Birger,
I am surprised that you are still getting asked for
the username; could you please run with
Root.Debug: 6
and send me what you get on the screen?
Could you also tell me which ROOT version you are running?
Cheers, Gerri
ps: only passwords are encrypted as it is now, so it's
normal that you find your username in the tcp-packets.
