Hello,

Is your password containing signs that are not listed here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:ASCII_Code_Chart.svg

If yes, then you might run into an encoding issue. When you use
other signs for the password then you always need to make sure that
your environment always use same encoding to connect.

Best Regards,

Susanne
