Hi all,
   I am trying to set FreeRADIUS up to manage access through a bunch of HP 420wl wireless access points...

My first problem is this... I want any devices that I know about (ie have their MAC addresses) to join 1 VLAN, wheras if I do not have their addresses thay join a different VLAN...

this is what I have got so far (users file):

## this works - the logs show this authenticates OK:
00-0e-35-31-5c-1b       Auth-Type == Local,User-Password == "00-0e-35-31-5c-1b"

## Following doesn't work - always fails on password match
DEFAULT                 Auth-Type == Local,User-Password != ""

I've tried all sort of oterh things -    User-Password =* "anything"
                                                    User-Password =~ ".*"
can';t find anything that works

Thanks in advance for any help

cheers
