[RADIATOR] FW: userid:ntu.ac.uk - Question on dropping part of the username

Thanks all, I have now found the problem. I needed an additional \\ in the UsernameCharset. This is now allowing domain\username to be passed. When users now have their wireless clients (in windows) set to "automatically use my windows logon name and password" it works.

can you overwrite what is passed through - eg use 'Domain' or 'DomainFormat' to change what is actually sent?

maybe its easier for user education and documentation - (ie only let things work for the user if they do things as docuemnted rather than take all junk sent to you? )
