You don't normally have to enter a username twice. If you are, then most likely the username your SSH client is supplying doesn't match an existing user or something like that. Check the terminal server log output to see what's going on.

The recemt change made in v3.20a was to allow for no-username to be supplied for systems that want to force a logon matrix and not use the SSH-supplied username.

What does the terminal sever log output report?
