Hi all,

according to the logs, the system is not able to connect to ssh host (linux Rhel 6.6) with a password containing spacial characters, like "123%123".

Is it a know limit of plink.exe ? Is there a workaround ?

The command line returns

Audit Location: local

-------------------

Exiting as other audits are currently running.

  P D TTY          T ME CMD

31629 ?        00:00:00 audit_linux.sh

bur REALLY there are no other audit running nor such process

Any suggestion?

Regards.

 

Red.

        This looks to be a bug - I can confirm the same symptoms.

        I'll log a ticket and get this fixed ASAP.
