Thanks for that... yep - it's a basically standard sword.pl document.

Nope - its a normal user account.... just like the other normal user 
accounts I have, that CAN authenticate.

What I have discovered it there are two gotcha's here:

1) The username must be [a-zA-Z_] .... 'test-user' fails, 'test_user' is 
OK (both can log in though)
2) the password seems to also be Perl word-characters '*password*' 
fails, 'qiwueyqw234' is OK (likewise, both can log in)

I'm guessing this is an issue in a handler routine somewhere
