I did find that
documented somewhere about the special characters in the PW
but after some digging and also after I found a work around.
Why is there this limitation? The site itself does not care.
Does Centos not allow special characters in the PW string or
is this filtered in the script? Bottom line is the script
should have a more user friendly response like "can't connect
to your account" and then just ask the questions locally. The
script is /usr/local/sbin/nodesetup.sh
I ran this manually after it would not work in the install in
the automatic mode. Should I change my site PW and go back and
run the nodesetup script and try this automatically again? The
manual install did configure my name and call but never asked
for the node PW. I assume I have to enter that in the
registration command in iax.conf ? It just has 1234567 for
the PW now. Is the PW used anywhere else?

No "special" characters (no !@#$%^&,
etc) can be used in your allstar portal password.
Been there, Done that. Changed PW to mix of letters and
numbers (no uppercase anything) and all is better.
Yeah, that's not documented anywhere, either. Took me 3 days
to figure that one out.
