I checked my client, it has test/test as username/password. The client tries a few times to send the right credentials, but eventually seems to give up. This did not result in a failed sync status. If I use <requestedauth>none</requestedauth> <requiredauth>none</requiredauth> <autononce>yes</autononce> <simpleauthuser>test</simpleauthuser> <simpleauthpw>test</simpleauthpw> then the server still rejects the first client's message with a 401 status, but sends no challenge and the client gives up immediately. Where do I have to look in the server to debug the authentication problem? I use SDK_textdb: <plugin_module>[SDK_textdb]</plugin_module> <plugin_sessionauth>yes</plugin_sessionauth> <plugin_deviceadmin>yes</plugin_deviceadmin> Hmm, I don't see where the SDK_textdb writes its files. I could of course apply strace, but it is late again, so let me better ask. How do I configure this? I saw something about it writing in the "application datadir", but how do I change that? <binfilespath> is not accepted in a server config. This could be the problem; without storing the next nonce, authentication will always fail. -- Best Regards, Patrick Ohly The content of this message is my personal opinion only and although I am an employee of Intel, the statements I make here in no way represent Intel's position on the issue, nor am I authorized to speak on behalf of Intel on this matter.
