Bug reference:      2269
Logged by:          Ken
Email address:      kgerdes@opushealthcare.com
PostgreSQL version: 7.3.4
Operating system:   Linux
Description:        cannot connect to postgres database on Linux
Details:

I just downloaded pgAdminIII for Windows to use to connect to our postgres
databases on Linux.  The problem I have is that when I enter the password, I
get this error:

Error has occurred
Error connecting to the server: missing "=" after """ in connection info
string.

The passwords to our databases contain the characters ; and ', which is what
is probably causing this problem.  Can this be resolved or is there a temp
fix to get around this problem?
