(RADIATOR) Cisco PIX & Radius Authentication Help!

Hello Nicole -

What VPN client are you using? And what platform is the client  
running on and what platform is the server running on?

In general a VPN client on Windows will be looking for the Windows  
domain to join.

Also note that when you ask questions it is much easier for us to  
help if you include as much information as possible, including at the  
very least a copy of the configuration file and a trace 4 debug from  
Radiator showing what is happening.

regards

Hugh

NB:

Have you read the reference manual ("doc/ref.html")?
Have you searched the mailing list archive (www.open.com.au/archives/ 
radiator)?
Have you had a quick look on Google (www.google.com)?
Have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
