[RADIATOR] Cannot process multiple AuthBy sections during authentication request

Hi Tuure,

This explains why that worked on 4.14 and not on the servers where 4.19 is installed! Thanks. I should be able to fix this now at least.
I saw the disclaimer saying EAP_MSCHAPv2_UseMultipleAuthBys should be avoided, but instead try to use EAP_PEAP_MSCHAP_Convert.
What would normally be the recommended situation to use the EAP_PEAP_MSCHAP_Convert at?


Since we share our infrastructure, we use a proxy RADIUS server (also radiator) in order to forward the requests to the customer network for request handling. Would the best practice generally be to use the convert part at the proxy or on the validating RADIUS server?

Kind regards,
Stephan Schwarz

Radiator 4.18 introduced more checks within EAP state machine along a new optional configuration option EAP_MSCHAPv2_UseMultipleAuthBys which should solve your problem.
