Hello,<br><br>

you give it. It doesn&#39;t mangle values.<br>

<div>I am under the impression that RADIUS client (radclient) is itself </div>
<div>is doing the UTF-8 conversion as per RFC 2865 while sending multilingual username attribute</div>
<div>if it is not in UTF-8 form.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>So I think this is not at all a meaning less.</div>
<div>correct me if i am wrong.</div>
<div> </div>

<div class="im">What exactly are you asking about - the program called &quot;radclient&quot;? In that<br>case it is you, the person who invokes radclient, who supplies the username<br>and password on stdin.<br><br>If you&#39;re asking about something else, please be more specific.</div>

<div> </div>
<div>   Yes, You have hit the correct nail.</div>
<div>I am talking about radclient only.</div>
<div>If supplied USER-NAme is not UTF-8 encoded by some means</div>
<div>suppose the scenario where UTF-8 support is not there then</div>
<div>at that time what radclient does.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Does it send the same multilingual charcters to the RADIUS server or </div>
<div>first of all convert that into UTF-8 as per RFC 2865 and send it to</div>
<div>RADIUS server in ACCESS REQUEST packet as attribute or</div>
<div>just send as it is to RADIUS server?</div>
<div> </div>
