The SunPlex Manager recognizes a limited character set to increase security. Characters that are not a part of the set are silently filtered out when HTML forms are submitted to the SunPlex Manager server. The following characters are accepted by the SunPlex Manager:
()+,-./0-9:=@A-Z^_a-z{|}~
This filter can potentially cause problems in the following two areas:
Password entry for Sun Java System services. If the password contains unusual characters, these characters will be stripped out resulting in two problems. Either the resulting password will be under 8 characters and will fail, or the application will be configured with a different password than the user expects.
Localization. Alternative character sets (for example: accented characters or Asian characters) will not work for input.
