(RADIATOR) Truncated usernames

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Gordon -

Check a trace 4 debug from Radiator to see what is contained in the 
incoming requests.

If the usernames are truncated to 32 characters when the requests 
arrive, then it is the NAS that is truncating the username strings. You 
don't say what you are using for your user database, but if you are 
using an SQL database you should check the table definitions to verify 
the width of the username column.

There are no limits in Radiator itself (other than the overall protocol 
limitations which limit attributes to 253 characters).

regards

Hugh

NB: have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
