Webadmin account can't use Special Character/Locked out

[breannascott1988]

Hello I recently installed two instances of Netsus and on both I was locked out after using a computer generated password with special characters. I was unable to resolve by installing over the isntance. Jamf was able to replicate the issue and suggested I place a ticket here.

How can I uninstall or reset the password now?

I should mention that I am unable to get in as shell user also despite never resetting that password.

We need to properly encode the change password field.
For example, an + in the password equals a space in the actual password (after change).
