I have a password with a plus sign ('+') in it. If i enter it manually it works. If specify it in the script, it does not work.

Any hints?

Thanks in advance,
Felix

Exactly as the sample shows. Do you have any special characters in the password/username? If you do not use sftp protocol, you may need to specify your protocol explicitly in the URL. If that does not help, post a log file.

I cannot pass the username and pwd on the command line. I have tried all types of ways to do it. The sample shows open username:password@192.168.1.254. That does not work. How do I pass the username and then the password? Thanks.
