* Check that the AUTH_MAD section is enabled in your oned.conf and
contains the server_cipher driver
* Check that the Auth Manager starts correctly in your oned.conf
    Mon Nov 19 16:35:46 2012 [AuM][I]: Loading Auth. Manager driver.
    Mon Nov 19 16:35:46 2012 [AuM][I]:      Auth Manager loaded
* Check that the serveradmin driver is set to server_cipher (oneuser
show serveradmin)
* Update the serveradmin user password using the one contained in
/var/lib/one/.one/sunstone_auth. Do not forget to add the --sha1
option
    $ cat /var/lib/one/.one/sunstone_auth
    serveradmin:newpass
    $oneuser passwd serveradmin newpass --sha1

Hope this helps
