Again had to put this aside for a few days (really starting to grind on
me, its a wonder I actually get any work done)

Anyway so started in again on this.

One thing overall I think that has confused me is that I was trying to do
everything from SQL, which now I dont think I need to do.

Basicall: Have a user and their crypted password stored in SQL, have
radius query the database for that info, if its ok, start a PPP session.

Only way I could get that to work was have the username in both the
radcheck AND usergroup tables.

I didnt want it to work that way as it would be extra work to populate the
database from our current radius setup, which uses Auth-Type System.

I think I have figured it out, though not sure if its the correct way. Use
a combination of users(5) and SQL.

Have the user and password in radcheck, auth-type=local in radgroupcheck
and use the users(5) file to do the rest and it seems to finally work.

My users file:

DEFAULT
        Service-Type = Framed-User,
        Framed-Protocol = PPP,
        Framed-Routing = None,
        Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255,
        Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobsen-TCP-IP,
        Framed-MTU = 1500

Using it like this works.

But as soon as I use it this way:

DEFAULT Service-Type = Framed-User
        Framed-Protocol = PPP,
        Framed-Routing = None,
        Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255,
        Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobsen-TCP-IP,
        Framed-MTU = 1500

Why does the top way work and the bottom way not? And is this an
acceptable way to do it? Store the users and passwords in SQL and have the
Users file supply the rest?

Thanks,
Keith
