Hi Yes, we have seen this often. The @ is used by Checkpoint to "break up" the username and passwords when using the Security Servers. I think this is why the problem exists.
As I recall, the @ is listed as an "illegal" character though.

Date: Tue,20/07/2004 17:30:14 Subject: [FW-1] IAS Radius weird problem with password and "@" Hi, I've configured CheckPoint to authenticate users (Client auth) with Microsoft's IAS server to access the Internet for browsing. This works fine for everyone, well accept one. Turns out the the person had a "@" in their password and that was causing the user not to be able to authenticate. I have verified it myself, entered it for the user and also changed the password to prove the point. As soon as changed the password, voila !!! Now I know what your thinking, "the user had the wrong password all along", changed the password back to something with a "@" in it and was denied access again (yes I left enough time to synchronise the AD's) As anyone seen this before ?
