Urm, there is no 'login' process with the SEXPR RPC mechanism libvirt
uses, so I'm not exactly sure what's failing. Could you proivide the 
actual error messages you get when using libvirt with Xen ?

libvirt does not use Xen-API. We use the SEXPR RPC mechanism. As such we
never call login_with_password()
