Re: [squid-users] spaces in object names on ldap

Not entirely sure on your question.. usernames is never passed on the
commandline.

There is a patch for Squid-2.5 to allow command line arguments with
spaces. See http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v2/2.5/bugs/. For
earlier versions you need to put the arguments in a small shell script
wrapper calling the helper with the correct arguments.

Usernames in the login process is encoded with URL encoding, so "Tomas
Palfi" becomes Tomas%20Palfi, but this does not apply to command line
arguments.
