Hi, i've a problem similar. But i stored my password in LDAP database in clear mode. So, i don't understand why it doesn't work too.
Passwords are not crypted !!! the error is : rlm_mschap: No User-Password configured. Cannot create LM-Password. rlm_mschap: No User-Password configured. Cannot create NT-Password. rlm_mschap: Told to do MS-CHAPv2 for example with NT-Password rlm_mschap: FAILED: No NT/LM-Password. Cannot perform authentication. rlm_mschap: FAILED: MS-CHAP2-Response is incorrect modcall[authenticate]: module "mschap" returns reject for request 6 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alan DeKok" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, September 02, 2004 9:43 PM Subject: Re: rlm_mschap: No User-Password configured.
