I'm trying to connect to a SFTP server with VFS but I cannot get it to work because the password has an @ in it, actually a few of them. I have found that it fails if the password has any odd characters in it. Is there an alternative way to specify the password for an SFTP connection? I am currently trying FileSystemManager.resolveFile("sftp://user:pass@server/file"); so clearly I cannot have an @ or : or / in the password. I've tried using %40 but it fails just saying it cannot connect.
