JOSM will not accept valid User Name and Password

[John Ramsay <johnramsay@…>]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Loging in to JOSM server from JOSM Application (Java 7)
2. Uploading Changes to maps

What is the expected result?

I get logged-in !

What happens instead?

Nothing ..... Login Window reappears

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.

I have changed passwords / reset passwords - I can login to the OSM web site using my password, I cannot get JOSM to recognise the user name an password !

Please do not ask me to check CAPSLOCK and/or spelling - I wouldn't be on the site if I needed that advice !
