Hello all --
I'm attempting to perform a 'Login' SOAP method, but am receiving a ServerFaultCode with the string of "Cannot complete login due to an incorrect user name or password." The username and password are correct (I can login via HTML or Flash management or via the REST API with the same credentials).
My flow is as follows:

Can someone point out what's wrong here? Everything seems OK according to docs.
Thanks for any help!
