Hi Alan,

Ok, I figured out why I wasn't able to change the "testing123" password.  I was surrounding the new random password in quotes.   Once I removed the quotes, it worked.

  That's good.

  That's not good.  The secret there is for home servers, not clients.
I suggest changing it back.

  That's not good.  Those files are NOT used by the running server.  I
suggest changing it back.

  That's good.

  Well, it should work.  What does the debug output say?  That should
tell you *exactly* what's going on.
