[SOLVED] Squid LDAP Auth: there is a space in user name

Hi genius,

I am trying to set up a Squid service with LDAP auth. All tests are passed, but I find I cannot get it work if the user name passed to the auth helper contains a space.

Here is a example:

Code:

/usr/lib64/squid/basic_ldap_auth -R -D "scan@apac.tld" -W /etc/squid/adpw -b "dc=apac,dc=tld" -f "sAMAccountName=%s" x.x.x.x
scan password
OK
name surname password
ERR Success

I've also tried:

Code:

name\ surname password
"name surname" password
"name surname" "password"
'name surname' password
'name surname' 'password'

But none of them work!

Do you have any idea to pass user name containing a space to the squid auth helper?

Many thanks!

After a min I posted this thread, I found a solution:

Code:

user%20name password

Works!
