I am running RADIUS server on BSDI. Now there is a peculiar situation. Somehow, when I put PPP/SLIP users in user table on portmaster the ppp connection works fine. But when a user need to be authenticated by RADIUS (a user who is not in port master table) I get the Invalid user message in RADIUS logfile. This is peculiar because this does not happen for regular user-login users. There RADIUS authenticates fine. Its just the PPP / SLIP users. My portmaster has global value as "assigned" for assigning temporary addresses. I assign users /etc/tcsh shell. and group as either users or netdial. Can that be wrong? If you can know the solution please let me know. I am teribally stuck. I know for sure that portmaster and radius communicate as I don't have an authentication problem with regular users who are in users file in RADIUS. Would appriciate your help.
