   I am writing an authentication plugin that attaches a filter to 'authenticate'. I want to prevent lower priority filters from authorizing login if my plugin fails. (More specifically, I want to prevent the default WP behavior)

   I tried to use this:
   remove_filter('authenticate', 'wp_authenticate_username_password');

   and

   remove_filter('authenticate', 'wp_authenticate_username_password', 20, 3);

   but neither seem to do the trick.

   Am I doing this right?

   I know this is coming late, but I've had some success using:

   remove_action('authenticate', 'wp_authenticate_username_password', 20);

   Hope that helps!
