Question:

I'm using n4Login and am getting the Error 245, "Already authenticated as another user." I know I'm not authenticated as another user, and the error is sporatic. n4Logout returns this error also. Any idea what the problem could be?

Answer:

The problem was that the user was logged into a tree, and was trying to attach to another tree in a different context.

You'll get this error if you're logging into another tree with a different context.

If the server you want to attach to is the same one as what authenticated you, then you'll have to run n4SetContext first, and then do your n4Login.
