I did.  It has this:

rasqlinsert -m none -r file -w mysql://user@localhost/db/table

There's no password in there.

After trying some things I got info on the console that seemed helpful.

dbUrl:       mysql://[user[:pass]@]host[:port]/db/table

So I tried this:

 rasqlinsert -Z b -F rasqlinsert.conf -r 
/path/to/argus/files/2012-10-15/argus.log.2012-10-15.16\:00\:00.bz2 -w 
mysql://user:pass@buttercup4.utdallas.edu/databasename/tablename

And got this:
rasqlinsert[2674]: 2012-10-16 15:59:44 mysql_connect error Unknown MySQL 
server host 'pass at buttercup4.utdallas.edu' (0)

Do I need to enclose user and pass in quotes?  escape the @?

I'm running 3.0.4.1 on FreeBSD.
