No

This is what I DID:
1. Boot into PBA
2. Start PBA (After fixing ip.txt)
3. Use 127.0.0.1 as the IP Hostname

This is what I EXPECTED to happen:
1. PBA client would launch normally

This is what ACTUALLY happened:
1. Dialogue comes up asking for a password for user "vmware"

This is what I had to do to FIX it:
1. Start a terminal
2. Create user "vmware" with password "vmware"

This is what I'd like FIXED:
1. Next version should not look for a username when 127.0.0.1 or localhost is specified. Either that or PBA has an option to allow for local usage without asking for an IP address.
