PB with Accent in nspmPassword in request LDAP between new FREE-RADIUS 
1.1.2 (suse) and edirectory novell 6.5







Hello, 

I set up a new solution implementing eap-PEAP user authentication and VLAN 
assignment with · : 
- FREE-RADIUS 1.1.2 on suse 9
- ENTERASYS Switch 
-  Edirectory Novell 6.5 

This solution is operational. 

On the other hand, if the user uses a password using characters with 
accents, this solution does not work. 

I identified the problem in the LDAP request  of the  FREE-RADIUS 1.1.2 to 
the edirectory of novell 6.5. 

The problem seems to come from FreeRadius server because : 

The  radius server is launched  by the command "radiusd -X -A", what 
allows us to get back password. 

What appears: 
when the password does not contain special characters (é.) the password 
sent by the ldap module of the server freeradius is correct. 

When the password contains special characters(é), the password sent by the 
ldap module of freeradius is erroneous (see track accompanying document) 
for the first character. The conversion is the following one: 

  

alé00000 àblé00000 

blé00000 àalé00000 

clé00000 àalé00000 

dlé00000 àalé00000 

elé00000 àalé00000 

r&é »?(-è à  a&é »?(-è 

 I have already met this problem with freeradius 1.0.5. 

Have you a solution to supply me? 

thank you in advance.

Best regards

Stephan
