Oh and by the way I think Steve is remembering a problem when the username
in nfuse 1.6 had a problem with 15 characters in the username which was
fixed with a SP.
We have WI 3.0 and i just tested it on 3 different accounts with a 20 - 25
character password with no problem.

Hmm are you sure that the domain security policy is set right on the WI
server if it isn't part of the domain I'm wondering if it may be server
specific. I would look at Domain security Policy from the Admin Tools folder
on your domain controller and see what the settings are. Note no settings
could cause this error also.  It is under account policies password policy.
