Hi All
I installed the radiator and decide to do both the authentication and the ip address delivery through mysql database
Everything is fine beside of if I try to do the authentication with encrypted passwd.
With normal plain text passwd its fine the job done.
My System is redhat 7.1 and the part in my radius.cfg that has the part of <AuthBy SQL> and responsible for the encrypt pasword authentication 
looks like this:

AuthSelect select PASSWORD, CHECKATTR, REPLYATTR \
from SUBSCRIBERS \
where USERNAME='%n'
AuthColumnDef 0,  Encrypted-Password, check



My question is what is wrong?Why I cant auth with encrypted paasword?
In my mysql subscribers table I have a user with encrypted password and when I try to authenticate through the radpwtst
I get auth reject but  when I try to auth with plaintext password its work.
In the subscribers table I have to this user the encrypted password as well as the plain text one.

thanks in advance 

                                                                                                                       Nir Cohen
