Description David McConnell 2007-10-31 20:15:43 UTC 
sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `)'
sh: -c: line 0: `curl --verbose --proxy http://proxy1.xxxxxxx.com:8080 --proxy-user xxxxxxxx:xx)xxxxx --connect-timeout 90 --url http://www.novell.com'

I have a ) in my password that seams to be confusing the YaST2 Proxy. (see example above)
The password works in Konqueror & firefox but not in YaST2/Proxy_setup.

Typing in the password quoted with single quotes ie 'password' makes it work
