Hello,

Could you elaborate a little more on this bug report, and describe what you are doing to trigger this issue?
What client software are you using to connect, and what service are you connecting to?
Also, what version of OpenERP (server) are you using?

FYI, we just tested again a webdav connection using Konqueror as a webdav client, with a login containing a space, and it worked perfectly. In fact, OerpAuthProxy uses HTTP Basic Auth, which uses a base64-encoded string for the authentication, in the form "login:password". Since this string is base64 authenticated, it does not have to be encoded like URLs, so it must not contain %20.
We confirmed this with Konqueror, it is sending the username with a real space in it during the authentication process, not with %20 or any encoding.
So it looks like this could be a problem with your client software or the way you are performing basic HTTP authentication.

Thanks in advance for providing more info about this issue!
