Password containing '#' character not working for connecting to Server.

Post by estefano.peroza »

Hello there,

In my configuration file, i need to set something like:
User=user1:Passw#ord

The password contains a hashtag character and i cannot connect to server because it says my username/password is wrong.

After connection failure, i come back to my configuration file and the User parameter becomes something like:

User=user1:Passw

The string after the hashtag symbol disappears!

I am using the latest version of wtware.

is there some trick for solving this?

Thanks !

Use Configurator, it knows the trick. "User=user1:Passw#ord" coded as:

Code: Select all

user=user1:\x50\x61\x73\x73\x77\x23\x6f\x72\x64
