That's what I hoped someone could point me in the right direction on. I
haven't been able to find anything saying how to turn on debugging. The
only thing I have seen is the DEBUG_LOGIN option for the authdaemon. I
turned this on, but it doesn't seem to be giving me any info related to
the issue I am trying to figure out.

Yes, I am certain it is turned on I have it set to use TLS always(not
the, "if available" option).
