pan won't connect

[R Kimber]

Although the .pan/servers.xml file contains the correct password, pan
refuses to connect saying that further authentication is required.  If I
try to enter a password in the server setup dialog it doesn't seem to save
it.

How can I get online with pan?

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 with Mate.
