I am running RADIUS ( has embedded ntlm_auth to authenticate to Windows AD) at debug level. The message below gets occasionally displayed on the screen. The serer continues to authenticate users anyway, but wonder if anyone has any idea of what is going on here.

ntlm_auth is being called with bad arguments, so is printing out its help page. What does the debug output show just before this? My guess is the User-Name is blank for some reason. Maybe you're calling ntlm_auth for EAP-TLS by mistake? Without seeing the debug output however, all we can do is guess.
