Schedule Scan

I did a new install of Sophos 9 on a Windows 7 computer.  It works fine in regards to updates or on demand scan  I have tried to schedule scans but it wants my login/password or to contact an administrator.  I have tried the login to that computer (admin login), my sophos login but neither works.  Any ideas?

    Steps followed....

    1) Open SESC. Click Scans link. Setup new scan

    2) Pick C: as the target for the scan

    3) Configure this scan. Options: All but scan for Macintosh checked; Cleanup: Auto clean virus and PUA. OK

    4) Schedule this scan. Enable Schedule (checked). Set for Friday only at 9AM

            Username: Domain account

            Password: My domain password

    Today, the scan scheduled, no problem. Yesterday, it would not take a password. Only difference that I can see is that I am not connected to my VPN this morning. Will try later today when connected to VPN.

    The error I was getting yesterday evening was "Incorrect password or the password does not adhere to security policy. Please try again."
