title: mulesoft sftp Auth fail - password with special characters
body: <p>I am having a problem with mulesoft SFTP outbound. I am keep on getting Auth fail from Mulesoft to connect to SFTP server. My password has special characters. I tried to change them to URL encode, but couldn't get through. My password is like $$xyz123. I am also trying to use the private key file with the passphrase, which also has the special characters. Can anyone please help to resolve this.
  Here is my sftp outbound endpoint:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;sftp:outbound-endpoint exchange-pattern="one-way" host="111.11.111.111" port="22" path="/cygdrive/d/SFTPROOT/dev/" user="user" password="%24%24xyz123" responseTimeout="10000" doc:name="SFTP"  outputPattern="#[sessionVars.originalFileName]"/&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Many thanks </p>
