Having a senior moment...please help.
 
 EDIT:  FIX FOUND - Senior eyes are getting bad.  I should have COPIED (not typed) the encrypted password into the DCC.ini file.  Capitalazation is important 
 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 
 
 I am sending sending a "ph_ssrequest" request to a remote computer that is running the DCC Powerhome client.  
 
 On the remote computer running DCC, I have modified the dcc.ini file to the right user ID, server port (8500) and encrypted password (from the pwrhome.ini file).    
 
 I currently use this approach (successfully) between multiple DCC machines (running XP) and my PH machine(running XP).  I now am trying to get the DCC client working on a new Vista machine.  When sending the  "ph_ssrequest" request (from my main PH xp machine), I get an error that says:
 
 "401 Unauthorized.  You must provide a valid userid and password to access the socket server."
 
 In an attempt to resolve this error, on the Vista (DCC) machine, I have turned off the windows firewall, and even shared the powerhome folder (and sub folders), but I keep getting this error when I try to send socket requests to the DCC client.
 
 Ideas???
