Hello Kala.

You've wrote to a wrong list, this is devoted to gtk development, not to
development with gtk. Probably gtk-app-devel-list gnome org is more
suitable for such kind of questions. 

About your application design, I think you are doing something unclear.
Usually, client should ask for a password and then pass it to server
(encoded of course). As I've understood you are going to ask for a
password in server itself. That's not a good idea I think.
