Hi Alan, I have written multilingual character *∞ *directly in RADIUS server's *users file.* without encoding it into UTF-8. * * Do I need to write Username in *user file of RADIUS server *after converting it into UTF-8 to make the *whole thing work*? If Yes then How can I write UTF-8 characters into *users file of RADIUS server.* Do I need to write directly the *HEX of encoded characters* or some other way into the *users file of RADIUS server as shown in attached users file of RADIUS server*? * * I have double check that the UTF-8 Encoder of mine is working fine. Multilingual character = ∞ (infinity symbol) is having equivalent form in HEX = *0xe2889e* and UTF-8 encoding of *0xe2889e* is = *0xf8 0xb8 0xa2 0x9e.* *Can any one please look into to above issue * *and guide me How can I configure the files of free RADIUS server * *to use USER-NAME field other than **US-ASCII like * *Chinese etc.?* * * *Regards,* *Karnik jain* On Fri, Feb 4, 2011 at 8:02 PM, Alan DeKok <aland@deployingradius.com>wrote:

While I am doing testing of my RADIUS client with multilingual characters consits in the username to check my multilingual support module.

I have sent the username after encoding username = ∞ that is 0xe2889e into UTF-8 that is 0xf8 0xb8 0xa2 0x9e to RADIUS server. But I am not able to authenticate user with the *FREE RAIDUS server*, who wants to login with the above credentials everthough there is not problem in UTF-8 encoded characters.
It looks like the User-Name *isn't* UTF-8.
