Fabric SSH authentication does not escape the $ character

Issue

• I have updated my login credentials for one of servers and now I cannot SSH to the fabric container running on this machine. The authentication fails with the following error:

2014-10-09 16:03:04,069 | ERROR | l Console Thread | SshContainerProvider             | service.ssh.SshContainerProvider  119 | 259 - io.fabric8.fabric-core-agent-ssh - 1.0.0.redhat-379 | Failed to stop container: oxygen

I know I am entering the correct credentials but the password does contain a $ character, could this cause an issue with the authentication?
