I am trying to call ssh using the ant exec task from maven. My problem is t=
hat I can't figure out how to escape spaces in usernames. I have tried:

<exec executable=3D"sed" failonerror=3D"true" inputstring=3D"stein inge mor=
isbak" outputproperty=3D"username">
   <arg value=3D"s/ /\\ /g" />
</exec>

<exec executable=3D"ssh" failonerror=3D"true">
   <arg value=3D"${username}@localhost" />
   <arg value=3D"if [ -f /tmp/test.txt ]; then rm -f /tmp/test.txt ; fi" />
</exec>


... and also:

<exec executable=3D"ssh" failonerror=3D"true">
   <arg value=3D"&quot;stein inge morisbak&quot;@localhost" />
   <arg value=3D"if [ -f /tmp/test.txt ]; then rm -f /tmp/test.txt ; fi" />
</exec>

... and finally:

<exec executable=3D"ssh" failonerror=3D"true">
   <arg value=3D"'stein inge morisbak'@localhost" />
   <arg value=3D"if [ -f /tmp/test.txt ]; then rm -f /tmp/test.txt ; fi" />
</exec>

... but no luck :-(

Any ideas?=
