Normally, movie's B muXtra should reply with a message
containing an
errorcode.
Try to connect to movie A using this movie:
http://goMU.rebus.gr/Examples/Connections/goMU-connect.dir
and see if you get an error message

I'd recommend using custom authentication code: allow all
users to
connect, no matter the id, and then ask them to provide their
true
id/pass. You can then allow them to continue, or disconnect
them.
That way, you can also have a descent registration page,
within your movie.
