Alan and all, Thanks for your help. Here is an issue that I cannot get worked out. However, if I run the > mysql -u radius -p radius command it will take me right to the radius database so it is working (right?) sql: safe-characters = "@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789.-_: /" rlm_sql (sql): Driver rlm_sql_mysql (module rlm_sql_mysql) loaded and linked rlm_sql (sql): Attempting to connect to radius@localhost:/radius rlm_sql (sql): starting 0 rlm_sql (sql): Attempting to connect rlm_sql_mysql #0 rlm_sql_mysql: Starting connect to MySQL server for #0 rlm_sql (sql): Connected new DB handle, #0 rlm_sql (sql): starting 1 rlm_sql (sql): Attempting to connect rlm_sql_mysql #1 rlm_sql_mysql: Starting connect to MySQL server for #1 rlm_sql (sql): Connected new DB handle, #1 rlm_sql (sql): starting 2 rlm_sql (sql): Attempting to connect rlm_sql_mysql #2 rlm_sql_mysql: Starting connect to MySQL server for #2 rlm_sql (sql): Connected new DB handle, #2 rlm_sql (sql): starting 3 rlm_sql (sql): Attempting to connect rlm_sql_mysql #3 rlm_sql_mysql: Starting connect to MySQL server for #3 rlm_sql (sql): Connected new DB handle, #3 rlm_sql (sql): starting 4 rlm_sql (sql): Attempting to connect rlm_sql_mysql #4 rlm_sql_mysql: Starting connect to MySQL server for #4 rlm_sql (sql): Connected new DB handle, #4 Module: Instantiated sql (sql) Then tell the server to use that password instead of the Unix module Where is this process at?

I have looked at the radius.log file
Don't. Run the server in debugging mode.

The Unix module says that the password is wrong, or the user doesn't exist in /etc/passwd.
But I have it in radcheck and can prove it.
Then tell the server to use that password instead of the Unix module. Alan DeKok. Dwane Atkins T&N 210-567-0158 <mailto:atkinsd@uthscsa.edu>
