Hi,
According to http://wiki.freeradius.org/PopTop though, I shouldn't need to define a user. The 1.x configuration does not appear to have required this either. Did it default to using local /etc/passwd or PAM? Did the old mschap module know to use samba?
Thibault, how does your configuration actually authorize the user? Is it against /etc/passwd or against a local Samba server?
of course you need a user....but its up to you where they are. see your logs, it says ++[unix] returns notfound [files] users: Matched entry DEFAULT at line 172 ie, it couldnt find a user in the system (/etc/passwd) and it hit the DEFAULT entry in your users file (line 172) read the modules/mschap file to see how to use smbpasswd you should be able to use smbpasswd in the authenticate section of the default virtual server alan
