Is this a server password? Or is it your own callsign password? If its the server, then you have the "-passwd" command wrong. Its "-password." Also, is this a part of a map file? It doesn't look like a conf file. Please give us some more information.

You can't put the server password in the map file. People can download the map file...so you wouldn't want them to get the password. :)
