Timeclock

Found an interesting situation with the time clock where a student could not login to manage his account.  He would get a generic error message.  He could log in to his Portal account and into his windows account.  I had him reset his password and again, he could only access his Portal and windows accounts.  Searching through the code for that application I found where his error was, but it was not making obvious why it was running into the section of code it was in.  Finally I was able to track down the username the student was using was capitalized and would not work as the system is case sensitive.  I tends to be simple problems and simple solutions, but this one took me a few hours to find.
