Hi, Henry:
I just tried dropping spaces, but not worked.
The error message is :
expansion of "1234\" failed in fixed_login authenticator: \ at end of
string
If use client_send = ":user1:1234\:" (one backslash)
The error message is :
454 5.7.3 Client was not authenticated.
Are there other tries?
Thanks,
Latrell
