WE have enable radpostauth to record unsuccessful dialing attempt. Passwords with special characters are not showing properly in radpostauth table. Example username: zaib password: myp@$$^&*w0rd In radpostauth I see this zaib myp@=3D24=3D24=3D5E=3D26=3D2Aw0rd Access-Reject RADPOSTAUTH config is below: query = "\ INSERT INTO ${..postauth_table} \ (username, pass, reply, reply_msg, authdate, nasipaddress, mac) \ VALUES ( \ '%{SQL-User-Name}', \ '%{%{User-Password}:-%{Chap-Password}}', \ '%{reply:Packet-Type}', \ '%{reply:Reply-Message}', \ '%S', \ '%{NAS-IP-Address}', \ '%{Calling-Station-Id}')" } Regards, J. <http:///>
