Leaking MC clutch hydraulic line connector

After replacing my clutch master cylinder with a brand new one I noticed that the screw in connector to the solid hydraulic line (that goes to the slave cylinder) is leaking. I press the clutch pedal a couple of times and I can see hydraulic fluid leaking past the thread and pipe.

What is the best way to fix this?

I thighten as far as I dared. Any further, the new master cylinder screw in thread might strip, plus cylinder can spin in rubber mounting.

Thanks,

Bert

Never mind. I solved it with a big plier and another small twist. No leakage anymore.
