Fresh Install - OF3.5.1/SQL/LDAP/AD - Can't login to Admin Console

I just got done installing and setting up OpenFire 3.5.1. Went through the setup wizard, set it up for my SQL server, setup LDAP, everything looks great.  Added myself as an admin user, used the Test screen to put in my domain password and it said successful.  I completed the setup wizard, click the button to login to the admin console, and it won't take my username and password.  I'm using my Domain username and password and it will not work.  I have my username setup in the config file <authorizedUsernames>  section and it still doesn't work.  I've even tried adding 'admin', because I saw in the sql database it created a user with the name admin and admin as password...i'm guessing this is a default...but even that doesn't work.  What am I doing wrong to be able to just login to the admin console?

once you hook up an exterior authentication source, admin no longer works.  have you looked in your logs to see if an error is being generated?

so in these sections you have what?

 

 

 

 

 

<authorizedUsernames>jeff_garner</authorizedUsernames>

    <!-- Comma-delimitted list of bare JIDs. The JIDs may belong to local

         or remote users. -->

    <authorizedJIDs>jeff_garner@MYIM.MYCOMP.COM</authorizedJIDs>

I have attached a sample openfire.xml file for your reference.

can you post a copy of your openfire.xml (edited for security)?
