This external documentation for pyVmomi was generated using Googly Docs (aka Google Standard Documentation) which renders very cleanly in GitHub. Internal documentation for a class should be done in Sphinx format because tools like pyCharm and Eclipse can use that documentation as a hint for code completion. Note: External docs as Googly Docs, internal docs as Sphinx. Closes bug#15

vim.vm.guest.NamePasswordAuthentication
|
|
=======================================
|
|
NamePasswordAuthentication contains the information necessary to authenticate within a guest using a name and password. This is the typical method for authentication within a guest and the one currently used by VIX. This method of authentication is stateless.To use NamePasswordAuthentication, populate username and password with the appropriate login information. You should not use `AcquireCredentialsInGuest`_ or `ReleaseCredentialsInGuest`_ for NamePasswordAuthentication.Once populated, you can use NamePasswordAuthentication in any guest operations function call.
