[squid-users] Re: Re: Character conversion between authentication and authorisation

Hi Amos,

   What is the rule for squid regarding rfc1738 escaping/unescaping ?
Should the auth helpers return a rfc1738_escaped username and expect the
same as input for the authorisation helper ? I don't do that at the moment
in squid_kerb_auth nor in squid_kerb_ldap .
