Phil & Scott & Atrix & Brent & John - thanks for the suggestions. I'm going to call him this morning and keep trying things until something works.
He was logging in just fine before from the same machine, and I can log in with his username now; nothing in that code has changed and no-one else is having problems. It just doesn't feel like a coding thing. I really suspect a PEBKAC, but I want to try everything else possible before I get too insistent with him. I appreciate the suggestions for things to check on. I'll let y'all know how it turns out.
