Hi, I just made a fresh install of a freeradius server 3.0.4 and i want to test the ntlm_auth module. It's a new installation with only 3 changes made: 1) Added ntlm_auth at the begining of the authenticate section of the default: authenticate { ntlm_auth # # PAP authentication, when a back-end database listed # in the 'authorize' section supplies a password. The # password can be clear-text, or encrypted. Auth-Type PAP { pap } ........ 2) Added ntlm_auth at the begining of the authenticate section of the inner-tunnel: authenticate { ntlm_auth # # PAP authentication, when a back-end database listed # in the 'authorize' section supplies a password. The # password can be clear-text, or encrypted. Auth-Type PAP { pap } ........ 3) Added a user at the begining of the users file: user1 Auth-Type := ntlm_auth, NAS-IP-Address == 127.0.0.1, Service-Type = Login-User, When I try to start the radius server the next error is shown: reading pairlist file /etc/raddb/mods-config/files/authorize /etc/raddb/mods-config/files/authorize[46]: Parse error (check) for entry user1: Unknown value 'ntlm_auth' for attribute 'Auth-Type' Failed reading /etc/raddb/mods-config/files/authorize /etc/raddb/mods-enabled/files[9]: Instantiation failed for module "files" Here is a copy of the messages showed by
