(RADIATOR) Bad encrypted password

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Ganbold -

This isn't really a Radiator problem and I don't have any useful 
suggestions I'm afraid. Although it does seem to be more of a systems 
architecture/design issue rather than anything directly involved with 
Radiator.

Perhaps someone else on the list?

regards

Hugh
