when a backend radius server sends bakc the following tunnel attributes, the freeradius 1.0.2 fails the request with "tunnel password is too long for the attribute"( discovered by radiusd -X).

Ok...

Tunnel-Password = 1:lab

That's not the correct format for tags.

if I comment out the Tunnel-Passord, the proxied reply returns fine.

I though you said that the backend server sent the attribute? How do you comment it out?

I guess this is a problem with the tagged stting for the password, partt of which is encrypted perhaps? the backend is Radiator 3.8.

See src/lib/radius.c. A byte in the attribute says how long it is. If en/decrypted wrong, the byte will be garbage. Alan DeKok.
