Question    
How do we encode special characters in verification when using bor-auth? 
We have an LDAP user with PW Sund#ay. 

This URL does not work as Aleph will check for PW "Sund" and not "Sund#ay": 

http://localhost:8992/X?op=bor-auth&...cation=Sund#ay

Answer    
Some special characters should be encoded when sent through URL.(See http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_urlencode.asp) 

So this URL should work – http://localhost:8992/X?op=bor-auth&...tion=Sund%23ay
