They may have altered the original login form.
Got command line access to that server?
Check moodlecode/login/index.php
If that has been altered ... hide the file mv index.php .index.php
If you know version of moodle (check version.php file in code root), you could download that versions zip file, unzip locally, then copy /login/index.php into servers login directory and then try again.
Or they may have created an altlogin.php page that admins of site would use to login with manual accounts. Have no idea of what they might have named it ... would imagine it's in moodlecode/login/ however.
Good luck!

Follow up ... in code/admin/cli/ issue:
php cfg.php |grep alternateloginurl

Nice to see you!

Yes, I consider that a possibility. And believe it or not, the code is not a Git repo!

To judge from file timestamps, nothing changed in the ./login/ directory. I fetched the latest Moodle 3.10 and ran a diff - nothing.

See above. I would hate to go the zip path. As mentioned took a diff of the original file from and the latest 3.10 /login/index.php - no difference.

Found no sign. Still to be sure, contacted the admins. Have to wait for the response.

Re: Mnet SP doesn't offer manual logins [SOLVED]
SOLVED. The admin informed me that they've hidden the button with CSS, uploaded to the theme on the web GUI.
Thanks for the heads up! Learned other things in the process. And got the assurance that they haven't changed any code.
