Description Will Benton 2010-08-03 18:37:20 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #612425 +++

Description of problem:
The ruby QMF console will repeatedly attempt to use bad credentials instead of failing.  (Observed in wallaby-utils.)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

ruby-qmf 0.7.946106-10

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run a QMF console application, e.g. wallaby-inventory, with bad supplied credentials
  
Actual results:
The tool attempts to use the bad credentials indefinitely
The tool repeat the same message over and over again
'warning Broker closed connection: 320, connection-forced: Authentication failed'

Expected results:
The QMF engine should raise an exception after some configurable number of failed authentication attempts.
