Re: (ASCEND) Preventing spaces in usernames.

Hi,
The environment details are:
/usr/local/bin/radiusd: RADIUS version 1.16 (plus Ascend
extensions)
1997/12/22
 NOSHADOW BINARY_FILTERS ASCEND_SECRET ASCEND_LOGOUT FreeBSD
We do have a DEFAULT entry:
DEFAULT Password = "UNIX"
        User-Service = Framed-User,
        Framed-Netmask = 255.255.255.0,
        Framed-MTU = 1500,
        Framed-Compression=Van-Jacobsen-TCP-IP, 
        Ascend-Idle-Limit = 3600
Connecting to:
max4060 system revision:  eik.m40 6.0.2
Nothing special on this box.... no ospf etc... 
Had about over 2 month's uptime, until recently... dammm...
well, I have a user named warren, his username on the unix
is warren
passwd entry minus a bit.
warren::1096:1000::0:0::/home/warren:/bin/date
, On the max session window, it shows as "warren weeks", and
this
causes havoc to my billing software.. He is not the only one
able to
do this,
type login on with "username @ yourdomain", <- I get a few
of these as
well.
I will remove the DEFAULT entry but not just yet.

Regards
	Phillip.
