[RADIATOR] LDAP is not authenticating when the username cotains DOT or password cotains #

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Aboo Vattem Kandathil -

Could you please add "Debug 255" to your AuthBy LDAP2 clause, then run  
radiusd like this in a terminal window so we can see what is happening:

	cd /your/Radiator/source/distribution

	perl radiusd -foreground -log_stdout -trace 4 -config_file /your/ 
Radiator/configuration/file

	.....

You will need to use your local pathnames in the above of course.

Can you also please tell me what hardware/software platform you are  
running on, and what versions of Radiator and Perl?

regards

Hugh
