I log in with the correct password the first time, then I retry with the wrong password.

F:\>psql -U superted -d SEE -h 10.10.10.99
Active code page: 1252
Password for user superted:
Welcome to psql_mod 8.3.7 (server 8.3.8), the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.

Password for user superted:
psql_mod: server closed the connection unexpectedly
        This probably means the server terminated abnormally
        before or while processing the request.
Press any key to continue . . .
