        Whoa!  That's two "admin" users, otherwise known as "clobbering".  Your 
problems begin here.  Use only one of these, or change the name of one.

        ...which makes no sense - optional password?  "This safe has a 
combination, but you can also just turn the handle and the door opens".

        Fix the users and try again, please.


        HTH,

Mike
