freeradius + edirectory + special caracters

[David]

Hello,

 

We are trying to use freeradius 1.1.2 to authentication our users on our
wired network (802.1X). 

 

Our architecture is the following:

 

Client                       switch

Windows Xp    ----->   Enterasys -----> freeradius 1.1.2 -----> edirectory 

Aegis
ldaps      LUM

 

Once the user gets the authorisation access, it gets its vlan too and begins
the system logon to the NT server account and to the novell edirectory
account (fire sharing)

The users connect through Aegis client on XP SP2 operating system.

The NAS are ours switches (Enterasys V2 and C2)

The authentication schema is PEAP MSCHAPV2

The users’ base is edirectory which is accessed by freradius thanks to
ldaps.

 

We have configured edirectoty with Universal password and extend its schema
in order to add radius attributes. (as indicate in documentation given by
novell)

 

Its works except when the user’s password contains special characters.

By example,

If the user password is ale00000 the log is:

rlm_ldap: bind as uid=david ,ou=XXX,dc= XXX/ale00000



. 
The authentication works.
 

If the user password is alé00000 the log is:

rlm_ldap: bind as uid=david ,ou=XXX,dc= XXX/blé00000



. 

The authentication fails.

 

I have tried with others passwords and it gives

alé00000 --> blé00000

blé00000 --> alé00000

clé00000 --> alé00000

dlé00000 --> alé00000

rlé00000 --> alé00000

d&é »’(-è --> a&é »’(-è

 

any help will be welcome for any clue to solve this problem; (witch is a
real problem because a lot of our users come to see us when they change
theirs passwords)

 

By the way, excuse me for my approximate english.
