This switch does not require the ”/”. The user name and password in System Five have to be exactly the same including the case of each letter. This option is seldom used anymore because PCI requirements won't allow a user name and password to be the same. There is an alternate setup with a command line argument and an ini file that contain the login information, but it is usually used for replication, and will require a Windward Software Employee to configure for you
