It will fail if connecting Anonymous user to MGServer with
ConnectionFactory.CreateHttpConnection in MaestroAPI 2.1+.

I scanned the source and found the following code in class
'HttpServerConnection':
internal HttpServerConnection(NameValueCollection initParams) : this()
{
......
        if (initParams["Password"] == null)
        {
            throw new ArgumentException("Missing required connection
parameter: Password");
        }
......
}

But in many cases, strict authentication is not required.  Anonymous user
without password is suitable for such cases.

it will be faced similar situation by using LocalNativeConnection.
