This relates to case #00959640, if that help the Google support engineers 
here.
I deploy my AppEngine code using one of my defined GoogleApps for Domains 
(Premium) accounts. Let's call this account deployer@mydomain. I've got 
email and password being passed via the command line to appcfg.py.

I can log in to mail.mydomain (google apps) with no problem with 
deployer@mydomain. However on a daily basis (and it's at least once every 24 
hours) I have a problem with AppEngine deployments where I'm prompted to go 
deal with authentication, per this message:

Initiating update of app: my-app-name, version: 20110221-2119
Please go to
https://www.google.com/accounts/DisplayUnlockCaptcha
and verify you are a human. Then try again.
Error 401: --- begin server output ---
Must authenticate first.
--- end server output ---

This happens completely irregularly - sometimes to the point where I deploy 
my application with this login, but when I try to set the default version 
(another call to appcfg with exactly the same parameters), I get this 
authentication error. But it's pretty much guaranteed to happen at least 
once a day now.

All my connections to this user account are from the same IP address (my 
external IP), at least as for as I can tell from the connection history for 
this account. And I've never been prompted for the captcha from any other 
google-apps service (although I only use gmail  for this account, so it's 
possible that it's some other issue).

This repeated request for authentication is problematic since I can't do 
automated deployments. And there's no logic that I can see to why this 
occurs, or when.

I'd greatly appreciate help on this since it's been about 2 weeks of this 
problem, and it's quite disruptive. BTW it appears to have started since the 
last appEngine/google-apps upgrade. Prior to that I never had any request to 
validate myself.

Thanks.

Thanks.
