OK, if the user name and password error comes up as it loads its to do with
connecting to the scheme, if its after the scheme has loaded your see its
trying to connect to the databases, then its the repl user name and
password.

to check
1) Are you using REPL as your user for replicating between the databases? If
not this will cause the updates to continuously replicate.

2) Open the replication manager, go to file, configurations, select your
scheme and make it default again. this will prompt for the password. This
seems to save it back down so it knows about it when the replication server
runs and tries to connect to the database (if that is where the error is).
