Hi all! I have a problem, I want to authenticate console users in cisco switches. In the 2960, the switch send the password in cleartext, nothing problem. User-Password="password" but int the 2950, the switch can only send in "crypted" version like this: NAS-Port-Type = Virtual User-Name = "test" Calling-Station-Id = "192.168.***" User-Password = "\\342\455\325]̍\322\tM~\237\616}\266\426" Service-Type = Login-User In the ldap database I tried all of the encription type (clear, md5, crypt, md5crypt) but every time reject the authentication: frad debug: Failed to authenticate the user. Login incorrect (rlm_ldap: Bind as user failed): [test/\\_\266\065]�?\663\tM~\667\354}\126\316] (from client switch port 1 cli 192.168.*** WARNING: Unprintable characters in the password. Double-check the shared secret on the server and the NAS! What can I do in the freeradius, what I forgot? Thanks! Gabor
