I think you should file a bug report against ipppd. I looked at its postinst script, and it indeed doesn't quote the e-mail address properly when substituting it into the file. Instead of: perl -i -pe '...; s,^name X.,name '"$ISPLOGIN"',; ...' ... which performs interpolation on the contents of $ISPLOGIN, it should use something like: perl -i -pe '...; $login = '\'"$ISPLOGIN"\''; s,^name X.,name $login,; ...' This still isn't perfect (it isn't robust against quote marks being given in the e-mail address, for one thing - using @ARGV would be better but would require replacing the -i and -p switches with something else), but it's better than before. (Feel free to quote me in the bug report, if you like.) Cheers, -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
