  That’s bad.

  That’s the problem.

  Why does it happen?

  ntlm_auth is giving the wrong response to FreeRADIUS.

  i.e. the problem isn’t FreeRADIUS.

  Re-start Samba, winbindd, etc.  Then try it again.  It should work.

  If it doesn’t, upgrade Samba to a version that works.  Or (sad to say) downgrade it to a version that works.
