RE: 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    ---à   Enterasys ---à freeradius 1.1.2 ---à 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 à blé00000 blé00000 à alé00000 clé00000 à alé00000 dlé00000 à alé00000 rlé00000 à alé00000 d&é »’(-è à 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.
