How did you escape the password? I would like to add a note into the docs about this issue with # on passwords on HP-UX.

Regarding your new question, it is answered on the module FAQ.

Briefly, there are some SFTP primitives not supported by the remote box so you will have to disable the put features using those unsupported SFTP primitives. Alternatively, you can set the best_effort flag which causes non-critical failures (e.g. not being able to set the remote file attributes) to be ignored.
