Situation

How do I apply special characters in the netiqpage.ini file?

Resolution

If the special characters appear in the target name, they must be placed in the [system] section of the netiqpage.ini file.  For instance, if you needed to put '!abcpager:' as the target name, this is what it would look like:

[system]
;;
;; first %s is target_name   [target]
;; second %s is additional parameters  [param]
;; third %s is the message   
;;
;;
abcpager=C:\abcPager\abcPager.exe !%s: %s %s
;;;
;; Target Sections
;;;
[AppManager]
 pageco1=abcpager
 target1=AppManager
 param1=
 start_time1=00/00/00 00:00:00
 stop_time1=00/00/00 23:59:59
