You can specify a different LoginID with `-loginid`. + +### Why doesn't my password containing special characters work? Do I have to specify the password on the command line? +If you pass the `-password` parameter with a password that contains special characters, you will need to escape the command appropriately for the shell you are using. You do not have to include the `-password` parameter on the command line as long as you include a `-username`. You will be prompted to enter your password interactively.
