Hi, I am configuring a freeradius authenticating against a OpenLDAP. The tests with radtest and radclient worked fine, but I have problems with a Cisco Switch. Running radiusd -f -x I get the following output: rad_recv: Access-Request packet from host 10.0.0.72:1645, id=7, length=76 NAS-IP-Address = 10.0.0.72 NAS-Port = 1 NAS-Port-Type = Virtual User-Name = "diegows" Calling-Station-Id = "10.0.6.30" User-Password = "\023\r)N-\323\344\377q\257\350\316JK\224\364" rlm_ldap: - authorize rlm_ldap: performing user authorization for diegows rlm_ldap: ldap_get_conn: Checking Id: 0 rlm_ldap: ldap_get_conn: Got Id: 0 rlm_ldap: looking for check items in directory... rlm_ldap: Adding sambaAcctFlags as SMB-Account-CTRL-TEXT, value [U] & op=21 rlm_ldap: Adding sambaNTPassword as NT-Password, value 3B317C5E7B68AB9D8F5715CFDC2B4B57 & op=21 rlm_ldap: Adding sambaLMPassword as LM-Password, value A6978BF97984FE13AAD3B435B51404EE & op=21 rlm_ldap: looking for reply items in directory... rlm_ldap: Setting Auth-Type = ldap rlm_ldap: user diegows authorized to use remote access rlm_ldap: ldap_release_conn: Release Id: 0 rlm_ldap: - authenticate rlm_ldap: login attempt by "diegows" with password "? )N-���q���JK?�" rlm_ldap: user DN: uid=diegows,ou=Users,dc=iplan,dc=com,dc=ar rlm_ldap: (re)connect to localhost:389, authentication 1 rlm_ldap: could not set LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_REQUIRE_CERT option to allow rlm_ldap: bind as uid=diegows,ou=Users,dc=iplan,dc=com,dc=ar/�tr;i4 ?��~��8� to localhost:389 rlm_ldap: waiting for bind result ... rlm_ldap: Bind failed with invalid credentials Login incorrect (rlm_ldap: Bind as user failed): [diegows] (from client prueba-switches port 1 cli 10.0.6.30) rad_recv: Access-Request packet from host 10.0.0.72:1645, id=8, length=76 Why the password is garbage?
