I am having difficulties using NILoginPanel in NeXT OS 3.0.  Neither the  
 
3.0 Documentation nor NeXTAnswers AQ697 clarify the ambiguity about the nature of call backs to the delegate after a validation has been performed. A similar question was posted to comp.sys.next.programmer by clu@malihh.hanse.de (Carsten Lutz) in March 1992: no one has posted a solution 
 
 in response to his question yet...

In the code fragment below, 
runModalWithValidation:InDomain:withUser:withInstruction:allowChange
always returns FALSE even though I have established a connection with a netinfo domain.  IsValidLogin: always returns TRUE if I use either runModal:*** or runModalWithValidation:*** with an INVALID password.

I have supplied a code fragment below.  Comments or other code fragments with NILoginPanel are welcome...

	niResult = [aDomain setConnection: [domainPanel domain]];

	assert (niResult == NI_OK);

	// the following ALWAYS returns FALSE

main:[aDomain getDomainHandle]
				withUser:"root"
				withInstruction:"A relocatable kernel needs to be loaded.  Please issue the root password in order to continue."
				allowChange:FALSE];

	// the following ALWAYS returns TRUE even with incorrect passwords
	verificationP = [authorizationPanel isValidLogin: self];

	[aDomain disconnectFromCurrent];
	[aDomain free];

	if (loginValidP == TRUE) {
	.....(etc)
ents with NILoginPanel are welcome...
