Greetings,
First, Thanks Alan DeKok. That was exactly what I needed for
NAS_Showt_Name.
Second, I just discovered a new issue. Not sure if this is a radius or a
MySQL issue.
When I crypt a password (MySQL CRYPT command) the password matches anything and everything that matches the first 8 characters of the password.
Is this a limitation of Radius crypt or is it a Mysql crypt ? I need 16+ character password that match.

Crypt has an 8 character limit in its specification. Some screwy systems play tricks like using the first 7 chars + the last char of a string longer than 8 chars (MacOS) instead of just the first 8, but it is still eight chars. You will need to use another encoding system for more characters.
What attribute would I use instead of Crypt-Password ? I tried MD5-Password and a couple of others, but I can find no documentation on anything other than User-Password, Crypt-Password, ClearText-Password, and CHAP-Password.

Crypt-Password just holds the encrypted password. It is up to you to properly encrypt the password and use it. You just cannot use the MySQL crypt() function since it has an 8-char password limit. Ken
