"does not work" = I get an "Access-Reject" as a response from the server.

Hex escaped variant:

# radclient -f test 127.0.0.1 auth testing123
Sent Access-Request Id 100 from 0.0.0.0:35361 to 127.0.0.1:1812 length 98
Received Access-Reject Id 100 from 127.0.0.1:1812 to 127.0.0.1:35361 
length 20
(0) test: Expected Access-Accept got Access-Reject

Non-hex escaped:

# radclient -f test 127.0.0.1 auth testing123
Sent Access-Request Id 148 from 0.0.0.0:42483 to 127.0.0.1:1812 length 86
Received Access-Accept Id 148 from 127.0.0.1:1812 to 127.0.0.1:42483 
length 20
