Ok, I'm going to admit that I don't know much about encryption but the only way I was able to login was to set my password as '11111111'. I had to use 8, 7 wouldn't work for me. A password with 8 chars wouldn't work, and a password with 8 2's would not work.

I assume that it must be some kind of fluke that this worked for me, but I wanted to mention it in case there was some error with the encryption.

Just a guess on my part.

Wow, I must say I didn't toy with any password under 8 characters before, but first password I created for 6 characters (4 numbers and 2 letters) worked. Not sure why 8 characters (all letters) didn't work before, but I don't really care so long as it works now. Thanks for the idea.

Do you mean you put the pw in plain-text as '11111111'? If so, you need to run a query
Code:
update tblLoginServerAccounts set AccountPassword=sha('<your password') where AccountName='<your account name>'
