I'm still struggling on this subject. Now that I have a test system available I made several tests with various radius and dialin client parameters with the following result: As long as a "%" is in the password, CHAP never works, regardless of escaping with "\%" or not, while PAP always works. Am I lost with CHAP and "%" in password or can I do anything else with this problem? nils-henner - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
