1] I have a login window with user name and password fields & Ok,Cancel buttons.
if a user enters wrong password, and clicks OK,window should NOT get dismissed.
if the user has entered the correct password then only the window should be dismissed.
so as to say, the window should not dismiss until the user enters a correct password.
how do i keep the window displayed until the user enters the correct password.?
NOTE:-Ok button has return key as the equivalent.

That should be simply - just don't close the window if the password doesn't match...
Your OK-button is probably connected to an action method, something like this:

- (IBAction) okButtonAction.(id) sender
{
if ([[myPasswordInputSecureTextField stringValue] isEqualToString: mySecretPassword])
{
[myWindow close];
[self launchApplication];
}
else
{
[self shakeWindowViolently];
}
}

2] If the password entered is wrong, then the window should SHAKE like the Mac login window.
There must be some way to do it.Is it possible to do so in ObjectiveC - COCOA?
I am desperate for a solution. kindly point me to any links,articles,sample code etc.

There is no such functionality in the public Cocoa API - at least that I know of. You would probably have to emulate it yourself, using the methods in NSWindow and a NSTimer. Just set a timer to call a method that moves the window left and right.
