Hi, Appears to me that the CLI allows login even though there is an authentication exception.
At that point there is actually no user id/pwd, ie, both are empty strings. If necessary, I can send the code, I am using for the CustomAuthentication.

Are you really authenticated at that point or does the cli just not know how to deal w/ auth failure? -- Jonathan Ellis Project Chair, Apache Cassandra co-founder of DataStax, the source for professional Cassandra support http://www.datastax.com ________________________________ Register for Impetus Webinar on ‘Device Side Performance Optimization of Mobile Apps’, July 08 (10:00 am Pacific Time).
