This version is still in beta stage :-)

NuFW 2.2 has a bug: it's not possible to tell if the problem is a TLS or 
an authentication problem. The most probable reason is an authentication 
failure.

First, check nuauth logs: should be /var/log/syslog (or in MySQL, it 
depends on your configuration). Run nuauth with -vvvvvvvvv (9v for debug 
level 9) to get all messages.

Check also:
  - nutcpc login and passwod: nutcpc command line
  - nuauth user module: file /etc/nufw/nuauth.conf,
    option "nuauth_user_check_module"

Please describe your nuauth options:
  log modules
  auth module
  acl module
  (or just attach your nuauth.conf without the passwords)
