I think the problem is that sometimes people use mschap instead of pap. I've
had the problem a couple of times with clients, and i couldn't find why the
computer encrypted the username. Because they didn't want to reinstall the
dialupsoftware i gave them a script, which worked well. If i had more time i
guess i could find the problem in the registry.

Subject: (RADIATOR) Line Noise and garbled usernames


Hi,

We have the occasional login where all we get garbage characters
for a username.  I assume this is line noise or our modems not
playing well with other modems (we're using USR/3Com TCs) This ends up
producing stuff like this:

DBD::mysql::st execute failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax near
(various control and escape chars here) at line 1 at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Radius/SqlDb.pm line 189. 

and:

: You have an error in your SQL syntax near ')'' at line 1
Thu Jul 13 15:45:30 2000: ERR: Execute failed for 'select NASIDENTIFIER,
NASPORT, ACCTSESSIONID, FRAMEDIPADDRESS from RADONLINE where
USERNAME='_p/zOC4(Kn)xi=_(I) 

Both of these seem to be from Radiator doing a select on the session db to
see if the garbled username is online.  Is there any way to get rid of
this?  Should I try to make a regex to get rid of these characters in a
RewriteUsername (not sure how really, it's all binary junk)?

Thanks,

Charles
