Steve;

You could setup a new account through AD or blow her existing account away 
and see if that doesn't clear the stick from the mud. Just attacking this 
as logically as I can, here. Since I do not know of a utility to check for 
problems with Kerberos/AD... Though it seems like there should be 
something out there to do just that. 

Bueller?

RE: [ActiveDir] Cisco VPN user authentication problem






Did that.  It was the first thing I looked at, having had experience with 
RADIUS before.  I created a user on the 3000, and it worked fine.
 
BTW, we use the Kerberos/Active Directory authentication.  But you knew 
that…

Steve; 

Just for kicks. Could you create a local account for testing? This would 
bypass any RADIUS/TAC+ problems and confirm the VPN client isn't at fault. 
Also, Cisco released a new client about a week ago. Don't ask, my laptop 
is stored for the weekend. Something like 4.88888888881720344-1 or some 
such. 

Anyhow, it sounds like a RADIUS problem within the server but check with a 
local account on the 3000 just to eliminate what should be obvious.

[ActiveDir] Cisco VPN user authentication problem
 


 
 




Greetings, Brain Trust: 
  
I’ve been troubleshooting a VPN access problem for about two days now and 
have almost scratched a groove in my head – this one’s a puzzler. 
  
My boss has an IBM Lenovo T60 laptop that has the Cisco VPN client 
software loaded into it.  It was working just fine up until the third week 
of December, allowing her to use Dialup to get into our HQ domain from her 
house.  When the logins failed, I thought it was due to crappy dialup 
connection, since noise in the link will cause the VPN tunnel to go down. 
  
However, I just got her link at her house to go on wireless, and it works 
just spiffy (11M up/down), and she still can’t log on to the domain with 
the VPN software.  The connection works just fine, she can browse with no 
problem.  OWA works just fine. 
  
Here’s some of the troubleshooting I’ve done: 
  
1)       reloaded the VPN software. 
2)       Tried to have her log on from another machine. 
3)       Changed the Group authentication (made a new one) just for her. 
  
Nothing seems to work.  She logs in to the domain normally from her desk 
at work using either the wireless in the laptop, or via the Ethernet 
connection.  Anybody else can use her laptop to get in via the VPN, so 
it’s not the drivers or hardware.  Her problem is replicated from 
ANYBODY’s laptop utilizing the VPN software.  It’s got to be her account, 
which is why I think it’s something screwed up in AD. 
  
When I monitor her attempts to log into the VPN concentrator (a Cisco 
3000), sometimes it says the IKE isn’t working, sometimes it says there’s 
no domain (“domain = {not specified}”), sometimes it never talks to the 
3000 at all (according to the log and the way it comes right back with the 
username/password request). 
  
Want to get even more confused?  This problem started when she attempted 
to change her password back to what it was – she went through the AD 
administration on the primary AD box and got some kind of error.  Ever 
since then, things just ain’t the same.  I think something got scrambled 
in her account.  We tried disabling her account for 5 minutes and then 
re-enabling, but nothing’s worked. 
  
Where should I look to see if something’s amiss?  I’m kinda stumped.
