DBD::TSM says Invalid user id or password

Esteemed monks, I'm trying to get DBD::TSM to work, but it refuses to accept my administrative username and password. Using Perl v5.8.8 on CentOS 5.4, have installed TIVsm-API-6.1.0-2 and TIVsm-BA-6.1.0-2. My test script is a slight rewrite of the example script ("dbi" was spelled "DBB" and no environment variables were set).

#!/usr/bin/perl -w


use DBI;

my ($server_name,$user,$password)=("enigsy-ser-backup-01", "########",
+ "########");
$ENV{'DSM_DIR'} = "/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/";
$ENV{'DSMADMC'} = "dsmadmc";
$ENV{'DSM_CONFIG'} = $ENV{'DSM_DIR'}."dsm.sys";

my $dbh=DBI->connect(
  "dbi:TSM:$server_name",
  $user,
  $password,
  { 
    RaiseError => 0,
    PrintError => 0
  }
) or die $DBI::errstr;

my $sth=$dbh->prepare("query status") or die $dbh->errstr;
$sth->execute() or die $sth->errstr();

print "@{$sth->{NAME}}\n";
$sth->dump_results();

The result? Connect: Invalid user id or password '########/########': 255/. at ./testq line 12.

The manual test suggested in the docs works ok, which should confirm that the dsmcadm and the login/password is OK:

I'm looking for someone who has worked with this module before and perhaps knows where to start looking for the cause?

Update: moritz suggested I use tcpdump to inspect the network traffic. DBD::TSM generates none at all.
