Re: (RADIATOR) CHAP authenication w/ Cisco and LDAP

2000-03-10 Thread Stuart Henderson
I've read in the docu that CHAP will not work when using encrypted passwords (which is what I have in LDAP) That's correct, you'll have to un-encrypt the passwords in LDAP or use PAP. If you require encrypted passwords in LDAP, you should disable CHAP on the Cisco. === Archive at
