Sorry for the lack of specificity; I am rather new to RADIUS!

My precise problem is this.  I have a Microsoft IAS W2K server and a NAS
with a Freeradius proxy in the middle:

        IAS <--> Freeradius <--> NAS

The NAS authenticates clients using MSCHAP-v2 and also provides
encryption using MPPE.  The NAS can authenticate and retrieve the MPPE
keys via RADIUS from the W2K box without any problems.  However, if the
RADIUS transaction is performed via the Freeradius proxy, the NAS
reports problems with de-crypting the MPPE attributes:

decrypt_attr_style_1: bogus decrypted length 89
decrypt_attr_style_1: bogus decrypted length -37

Hence, I can authenticate correctly but not retrieve the MPPE keys when
Freeradius is acting as proxy.

I hope this is clear?

thanks, josh.
