it is hard to guess what might be going wrong. I would simplify the
scenario you are running. A standard F&F should be sufficient in combination
with a credential.

I only can offer some general notes, perhaps you already checked these.


Check whether the scanner uses the newest feed.

There should be a log message that tells you whether the authentication
with the credential worked properly or not.

Have you checked the "Error" section of the Report View for any error messages?
