Hi Rick,

I found the same thing on Mandrake beginning with 8.1. It's an 
internationalisation issue to do with lowercase globbing and attempts to
un-asciify the world. See the following post for some background:

http://lists.cistron.nl/pipermail/freeradius-devel/2001-September/001364.html

On my Mandrake 8.1 box I have the following at the bottom of my .bashrc
which fixes things for me:

export LANG=C
unset LANGUAGE
unset LC_COLLATE

YMMV.

Cheers,
Gavin
