 Replying to [comment:8 wad]:
 > While I am sure that nothing from .sugar was copied from machine to
 machine, tests are run sequentially.   If the jabber server still thinks
 it has a connection from laptop A, what happens when laptop A shows up
 again ?

 It's supposed to close the first connection but it seems it doesn't
 according to logs.

 > Perhaps a hash collision ?

 Very unprobable. The login is a hash of the public key and the pass a hash
 of the private key. So the probabilty to have 2 laptops sharing the same
 login *and* pass is ~0.
