First of all, you should be using PC Access v2.9c or later.  Second of
all, the password doesn't have to be 16 characters, but as I recall,
it may be case-specific.  Mine, for example, is only 8 characters.
Third of all, you must be using the correct IP address and port number
(4369) - I think you can set those without a password, the password is
only required for encryption.  I don't remember where that came from,
but it is two parts and each part takes the form:

XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX

where "XX" are two hexadecimal upper case characters, like "6A" or
"34".
