Hi Zack,
We can't "mitigate" special characters because they're intercepted by
the shell (basically, bash removed your $) before the adduser program is
even started... Basic command line stuff :-)
Kind regards,
Tom

I wanted to say no, but after thinking about it yes. I set the initial password
to Abc123$ and it was unquoted. Removed the user from the database and

this is due to the software or if it is part of the docker image that I used to
deploy the software, but it did not come with a default user like the
documentation I found said it should
Could the adduser.php functions be changed to migitate the issue of an unquoted
special character? This could save others from having the same frustrations in
the future.
From what I can see, the software is not open source, otherwise I would
attempt to create a pull request for the changes if I could.
Thanks for the help!
Zack
