Description Haim 2012-02-02 13:36:21 UTC 
Description of problem:

when I execute the following: 

[root@rhevm-a8c-03 tmp]# ovirt-shell --url='localhost:8080/api' --username='admin' --password='letmein' --connect

ovirt-shell enters shell mode in disconnected state;

Welcome to Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization.

Type:  'help' for help with commands
       'exit' to leave this interactive shell

(disconnected) > 

please sys.exit(RC={wrong-password\authentication fails}) instead of entering shell.

no, this is by design - to provide help/params auto-completion capabilities.
