Two different sources, one with a single value

[Martin.Ward at uk.neceur.com]

Hi all,

I'm just about getting the hang of FreeRadius now, thanks to the various
emails and stuff that people have been asking, but I've not been able to
find the answer to one particular question.

I have a radius server that will process two types of request:
1. A user name and password login. Currently it's a flat file but I will
change that the use the rlm_unix module in the near future.
2. A MAC address, which is passed in as two attributes, "User-Name=MAC
Address" and "User-Password=MAC Address"

For the MAC address I want a flat file with just the MAC addresses in it. I
have tried using the passwd module and just ignoring the User-Password
attribute like so:

        passwd mac_address {
                filename = /var/mac_addresses
                format = "*User-Name"
        }

but this fails to authenticate even though it gets through the Authorize
section OK:

rad_recv: Access-Request packet from host 172.29.252.228:1026, id=98,
length=160
        NAS-IP-Address = 172.29.252.228
        NAS-Port-Id = "10:2"
        Extreme-Attr-208 = 0x556e6b6e6f776e204c6f636174696f6e
        NAS-Port-Type = Wireless-802.11
        User-Name = "000e359ec2ce"
        User-Password = "000e359ec2ce"
        Calling-Station-Id = "000e359ec2ce"
        Called-Station-Id = "0004960e2e00"
        NAS-Identifier = "Altitude 300"
        Proxy-State = 0x31303a32040436c236c236c236c236c236c236c236c2

auth: Failed to validate the user.
Login incorrect: [000e359ec2ce/000e359ec2ce] (from client wlan-switch port
0 cli 000e359ec2ce)

Am I simply doing the impossible, or am I missing something obvious
(again)?
