That looks like some kind of shell expansion.

Putting "\" character in front of the "!" character, is called
"escaping", and it is used to prevent the "shell" from using
that character as part of an expansion.

Hello,

When last i posted, I was having problems getting radius and
LDAP to talk using TLS. Ive fixed my problem, but in this process
Ive come across another issue. When testing I tried using a
"!" in a test user's password. On the radius server it came
across as %21 instead of !.


EXAMPLE:
radtest testradius ta!ters radius testing123
gets a access-denied

and the log files on radius server:
rlm_ldap: login attempt by "testradius" with password "ta%21ters"

but radtest testradius ta\!ters radius testing123
gets an access-accept

Any ideas what is going on??

Thanks!
