Sent: Wednesday, October 11, 2017 5:37 PM To: kerberos@mit.edu Subject: powershell calling cpw - white space in password problem I have a non-interactive powershell that changes password using cpw. It works fine. When the password contain white space character in it, it fails because it sees white space as delimiter. The following command works fine. The part -q is in single quotes. If there is a space in UserPassword it fails. How to overcome this problem? $processStartInfo.Arguments ="" + $server + " -l " + $AdminUserName + " -pw " + $AdminPassword + " -v " +" /usr/bin/kadmin -p " + $AdminUserName + "/admin -w " + $AdminPassword + " -q 'cpw -pw " + $NewUserPassword + " " + $PrincipalName +"'" $processStartInfo.Arguments = ServerName -l AdminAccount -pw AdminPassword -v /usr/bin/kadmin -p AdminAccount/admin -w AdminPassword -q 'cpw -pw UserPassword UserAccount' ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was secured via TLS by MUSC. ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list Kerberos@mit.edu<mailto:Kerberos@mit.edu> https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was secured via TLS by MUSC. ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list Kerberos@mit.edu https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos
