  The "users" file format hasn't changed.  Perhaps thinking it changed
is causing the problem:

  2.0:

  So nothing matched.

  Please don't say that.  There is no such thing as "default PAP
attributes".

  See?  The entry matches in 1.1.7, and not in 2.0.

  You can use the *exact* same "users" file from 1.1.7 in 2.0.  Whatever
changes you made to "port" it to 2.0 are breaking it.
