(0000031) pixeldoc (reporter) 2006-09-11 23:09	try to set username via ssh manually with: nano /var/efw/uplinks/main/settings or vi /var/efw/uplinks/main/settings change line: username=kdsl/d21099%kamp-dsl maybe this will help, cant test it.

But in etc/ppp/pap-secrets and etc/ppp/chap-secrets no username and no password (only if I try with Kamp-parameter. E.g. 1und1 works correct and I can see the userid and password in this files). Also I found in etc/ppp/peers/main is no username set when I try with Kamp-parameter, e.g. 1und1 is the username set. If I set the username (Kamp-parameter) manually, the username is deleted after update the connection status with the efw interface.

(0000033) tneumann (reporter) 2006-09-12 11:06	My 1. statement “The sign % within the userid is changed in /” is not correct.

(0000034) peter-endian (administrator) 2006-09-13 21:19	hi i found the part which caused the problem edit /etc/rc.d/efw_lib.sh and search for "readhash" this function reads out the efw settings files, but accepts only some defined characters within the settingsfile variables. the % sign will not be accepted. add it somewhere to the VARCHARS variable or replace the line VARCHARS='A-Za-z0-9=/,._@#+-' with: VARCHARS='A-Za-z0-9=%/,._@#+-' then it should work at least the config files chap-secrets, pap-secrets and the peers file will be created correctly.

(0000040) tneumann (reporter) 2006-09-14 09:03	many thanks to peter !!!!!! It works.

(0000041) peter-endian (administrator) 2006-09-14 17:22	thank you for testing, i added the fix to our source tree

Adding "!" to the parameters of VARCHARS in /etc/rc.d/efw_lib.sh did the trick, too. Right after saving the file, endian went online. (Endian Version 2.4.1)
