I don't do freeradius administration on a regular basis, so maybe
I miss something obvious, but although I printed out variables.txt
and read it several times I still don't get the point.
>From variables.txt I understand that variables are referred to

[EMAIL PROTECTED] Password = "34fgT%45"
which seem to be rejected because of the "%" beeing part of
the password value.

Do I get it right, I put "34fgT\%45" instead of "34fgT%45"
in the users file?
Which other special chars need to be treated this way?
Thanks for your help!
