Fwd: Regular expression - Trying to rewrite User-Name

[Dennis Skinner]

It is difficult to see what your machine is doing since you are giving
us bits and pieces of the problem and out of order.

What is that number?  Is that the resulting username after your regex?

Is that a different username than the munged one above?  Can you make
sure to provide details from the same username, so it is easier to
follow and see what exactly is wrong?

One of two things is happening.  Either there is a radius server already
running and it has been running all the time and any changes you are
making are not being seen.  Or you forgot to stop the radius daemon
before trying to run it in debug mode.

Try this:

killall -9 radiusd

radiusd -X

Now, leave that running and send it an access request.  Send us
everything from where you typed radiusd -X to the *end* of the request
(presumably a reject statement).

radiusd -X should not release back to a prompt, it should sit there
waiting for a request.  If you get a prompt back, then there is either
still something running on that port or something else caused it to
error out.

*After* you send a request and it gets rejected, Control-C will get your
prompt back and terminate the radiusd -X.
