Having some trouble logging in.

See original GitHub issue

So I am running Ubuntu 16.04 - 64-bit (Standard) on a VPS, and I am trying to setup a bot to send trade offers, But when i try an login to the bot on PuTTy. I get errors.

[nexusbot001 2017-03-07 19:16:03] ERROR: Login Error: InvalidPassword

But the password is correct because i have directly copied the password and username from the config, and they work. I have tried setting up the desktop auth. But when i send the command

exec BOTNAME linkauth

It returns

[BOTNAME 2017-03-07 19:15:00] ERROR: Error performing mobile login: TooManyFailedLogins

I am most likely doing something wrong. Thanks

Okay so I found a fix for this, you have to remove the desktop authenticator you have set up on the steam profile and then re-launch the bot and then go through the exec BOTNAME linkauth also if you already have a phone number set up on the bot remove it or the sms code won’t work unless you ad it through the steambot program.

@Savag3life did @TheFaceHugger 's response solved this issue for you? Otherwise you could try to be faster than the login attempts of the bot with the linking of the authenticator. You could possible add a sleep there for example. If this issue is solved a close would be appreciated.
