Yes, the password is less than 8 characters. &nbsp;I did not use the Web Gui for the setup. I used the command line tool (sysconfig).<br />

The screen just cycles back with those two fields being blank. &nbsp;It does not give the &quot;Logout Authentication Failure&quot; message, which I get if I try a password that is different from admin's. &nbsp;I've never been able to gain access via the Web Gui, so I've never been able to create the token that's used if you forget your password.
