Re: [Radiusplugin-users] openvpn crashes, well sort of

[Symon Fenton]

thanks for all the quick responses.

We are seeing some users login with an _ at the end of the name. It 
succeeds, and we know that the radius entry does not look like that. We 
wonder if that is the space at the end you speak of?

We're recompile and see how it goes.

Regards,

Symon
