Can not use the # character (ASCII 35) in the snmp read community string

[BvB]

I am not aware that the # character (ASCII 35) is on the invalid character list for snmp.
All my other devices and software have no issue with my read community string containing the # character.
In pfsense 2.0-BETA5 (amd64) built on Sat Jan 8 00:47:04 EST 2011

I get the following error:

The following input errors were detected:
    * Invalid character '#' in read community string

Blessings,

There is a side effect with bsnmp config file.

See http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/956

Thanks Pierre,

I guess I will have to change my community string.
