Subject: [9fans] spaces in passwords and factotum secstore file
Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2003 18:09:41 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <c68a99dd6259f71ac44dbc3b45832f1b@tombob.com> (raw)
Hi,
apologies for the slightly mundane question.
What is the right way of telling factotum about a password that
contains spaces? Specifically, I would like to put a line like the
following into my factotum secstore file:
key proto=pass server=some.server service=imap user=me !password= pwd with spaces
I have tried escaping the spaces with backslashes, and quoting the
password with single and double quotes, but I cannot get it to work.
Thanks for any pointers,
Robby
