[jdev] auth code failes

[Ovidiu Craciun]

Thanks for your reply. 

The password is not set wrongly, this is what I checked first, something
else is going on...

My guess is that the wrong password is being sent for the second user.

btw, those strings can easily be decoded by running `fold -w 79 |
openssl base64 -d` (and pasting in the base64 data)

Once you decode the values it's easy to see that user1=jabber_client_sub
and user2=JabberTest_1

The response values is defined in section 2.1.2.1 of rfc2831, so I
suggest you double check that first.

If you want an easy way to check the clients have the correct password,
then disable digest-md5, and/or force PLAIN.  This will make the base64
decoded data contain the password directly, which is obviously _VERY_
unsafe for a non-encrypted connection, but it does make debugging much
easier.
