Thanks, I'll give that a try. When I said they were the same username, what I meant is that they both used "mda" as the username, except one was preceeded by \\ and they both were authenticated successfully as mda, just the vlan wasen't returned with one of them. Anyways, thanks for your help! (again!)

The odd thing is is that in both cases there is an Access-Accept packet going out, except for the Dell, it does not assign a vlan (which is probably why it's failing).
Run the server in debugging mode to see why it isn't returning vlan.
Since it's the same userID loggin in, I'm not sure why the vlan is not being passed. The only thing I can see is that the username field in the Access-Request is preceeded by "\\" in the case of the Dell, and not so in the case of the working laptop.
Then it's not the same User-Name, is it? A simple solution is to put the following in the "hints" file: DEFAULT User-Name =~ "^\\(.*)$" User-Name := "%{1}" Alan DeKok. -- http://deployingradius.com - The web site of the book http://deployingradius.com/blog/ - The blog
