Cannot update Sophos AV for Linux (Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit)

Trying to run sudo /opt/sophos-av/bin/savupdate. I keep getting the following:

Failed to download 'sdds:SOPHOS': invalid authentication. Please check PrimaryUpdateUsername and PrimaryUpdatePassword.
Failed to update from primary update source. Redirecting to secondary update source.
Failed to download 'sdds:SOPHOS': invalid authentication. Please check SecondaryUpdateUsername and SecondaryUpdatePassword.
Failed to replicate from all update sources

After nearly a week of email back and forth, Sophos Support finally tells me to come here.

It seems when I installed the free Sophos AV for Linux, I was supposed to get a license ID. I have discovered this is not the same thing as my Sophos ID, which only adds to my frustration. So I don't see anything in my automated emails from Sophos containing a license ID, and I am guessing this is why I can't update the AV.

Where can I get this license ID (and anything else required to update the AV)?
