LDAP authentification with passwords containing special characters
Hi everybody, we use freeradius 2.1.1 and try to authenticate users via LDAP. But there seems to be an issue if we use special characters (such as #). #XxuwBw. is the correct user password If the users connects I can see the following messages: [...] [ldap] Added User-Password = #XxuwBw. in check items [ldap] No default NMAS login sequence [ldap] looking for check items in directory... rlm_ldap: userPassword -> Password # "XxuwBw." [ldap] looking for reply items in directory... rlm_ldap: Failed to create the pair: Failed to find IP address for XxuwBw. At this point something has removed the # and changed the password to XxuwBw. Subsequently the authentication fails: [...] [chap] Using clear text password "XxuwBw." for user ABCDE authentication. [chap] Password check failed Are there any restrictions regarding the characters allowed? Best regards Norbert

Use 2.2.8.
