Username/password

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.

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 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
