Issue/Introduction:

Here is an excerpt from a Symantec Reporter journal when the user either entered in a bad userid, or a bad password.

   src/sg_authenticate.cpp,172,ValidateLocalUser
      worker_thread_00001160(4448),,
   Invalid local password checksum for user user_e221e6602af911df9098f0004d76775d

   src/sg_webserver.cpp,6578,PostAuth
      worker_thread_00001160(4448),,

Here's we see both the Authentication (AUTHE) , and the Webserver (WEBSE) code responding.
