Re: Removing characters from usernames



Thanks that did the trick for User-Name and User-Password after I put what I renamed the name "macaddress_rewrite" to in the authorization section.

I am doing this using the "attr_rewrite" module in radiusd.conf, i
have the following section:

----
modules {
    ....
         attr_rewrite macaddress_rewrite {
                 attribute = User-Name
                 searchin = packet
                 searchfor = "-"

                 new_attribute = no
                 append = no
         }
    ....

i call it just before the actual ldap-module i am using.

Zitat von Andrew Zirkel <azirkel@exeter.k12.pa.us>:
I was thinking I could do something like this with a regular expression:
User-Name =~ tr/-//d
but I'm not sure where to do it and if it will work.  I'm using a
mysql back end so I was thinking in the sql.conf file.
Has anyone done something like this before?

Thanks,
Andy

Is there a way to parse the input of a username and password before
it is passed to the back end database?  I'm doing mac address
authentication and some devices are passing the mac address with
dashes, where I need to have no separation between the octets.  I
basically need to strip out these dashes from the input.

Thanks
