(RADIATOR) Basic users file & MSCHAP question

Hello Luis -

Thanks for sending the files.

As far as I can see, Radiator is operating correctly, with the user  
being ACCEPT'ed.

However, you are not returning any reply attributes, so the session is  
not being created.

Your users file should only contain your own users and nothing else  
(ie. don't use the example file).

Depending on what else you are doing, you may need other reply  
attributes, but this should get you started:

# users file

mschaptest Password=MyPw
	Service-Type = Framed-User,
	Framed-Protocol = PPP,
	Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255

Check with your vendor or the Cisco web site to verify what radius  
attributes are required to operate this equipment.

regards

Hugh
