Hi Don; What you've written sounds good. Here's the relevant extracts from my SR -
explorer data shows system has patch 146232-13, which obsoletes patch 143645-16. There is a known issue that was introduced in patch 143645-03, which caused the CHAP authentication not to work. The issue you are seeing with CHAP Authentication is a known issue that was introduced in patch 143645-03. This patch was obsoleted by 146232-13 (i.e. the issue introduced in 143645-03 is included in this patch). The bugs that have been filed for is this are 7031995 and 7127565. Engineering is working on a fix, and will provide you with an IDR or patch as soon as it is available. In the meantime, please keep CHAP authentication disabled. All the best, Drew.
