Malformed RADIUS packet from host

[rsg]

I agree it's not a RADIUS server. It's a WAP gateway running on Kannel
with  minimal support for RADIUS as described by
http://www.kannel.org/download/1.4.1/userguide-1.4.1/userguide.html#AEN1038

I understand your point. However, there's no better alternative for the moment.

Thanks,
srg.
