Nico,

I have no issue logging in to the site with the same credentials via a browser. I am developing an api service that uses the API and need to be able to login via the API. But if this is a configuration issue I would need instructions for my client to change the config. Just seems like an odd limit/requirement as most user names will be more than 15 characters...
