Here is the code from "Radius/AuthRADIUS.pm":

    # Use the same authenticator that came in the request, because if
    # it is an Access-Request, it might contain a CHAP random challenge
    # and if it is an Accounting-Request, the correct authenticator
    # (all 0s) will be set in assemble_packet before transmission
    $fp->set_authenticator($p->authenticator);

Hope that answers your question.

All the best of the season to everyone at KPN.

regards

Hugh
