I can uriencode the entire url. This link shows how it could be done with javascript: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/encodeURI Or you can look up what the escaped . character would be and use that.

(if the username is an email for example). If I create a user 't...@test.com' and do this: curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -X POST http://admin:geoserver@localhost:9090/geoserver/rest/security/usergroup/user/test%40test..com<http://admin:geoserver@localhost:9090/geoserver/rest/security/usergroup/user/> -d '{"org.geoserver.rest.security.xml.JaxbUser":{"userName": "t...@test.com<mailto:t...@test.com>","password": "test123","enabled": false}}' I get this: URI:/geoserver/rest/security/usergroup/user/test%40test..com STATUS:404 MESSAGE:Provided username does not exist: test@test. SERVLET:dispatcher You can see I already did some experimenting with the url to encode/escpae the '@' with '%40' and the '.' with a second '.' - but I can't figure a way to make it recognise the whole username. Is there a workaround or is this a bug?
