I already provided an answer to this issue on your stackoverflow question but I'm not sure you noticed: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11486719/orgmode-cant-authenticate-to-webdav-for-mobile-org-push/11974188#11974188 I'm pretty sure you're getting confused between ssh and webDAV passwords. I agree that with the docstrings as they are, this is a very easy mistake to make.
