Alan,

I now have the users file syntax like this:  

00:0e:35:1c:e0:52 Cleartext-Password := "testing"
        
        Tunnel-Medium-Type = "IEEE-802",
        Tunnel-Type = "VLAN",
        Tunnel-Private-Group-Id = "157",



But when radius returns the following error when attempting to start...

/etc/raddb/users[80]: Parse error (check) for entry 00:0e:35:1c:e0:52:
Unknown attribute "Cleartext-Password"
Errors reading /etc/raddb/users
radiusd.conf[1059]: files: Module instantiation failed. 
radiusd.conf[1837] Unknown module "files".
radiusd.conf[1773] Failed to parse authorize section.

Brian.

  What leads you to conclude that?  Have read the documentation for the
"users" file?  Do you know what a regular expression is?

  No, that's not what I said.

  Go read "man users", and the comments at the top of the "users" file
to see what an entry looks like.  What you have above is nonsense.  The
word "User" doesn't belong.  You don't need quotes around all of the
Cleartext-Password stuff.  What you need is:

 00:0e:35:1c:e0:52 Cleartext-Password := "whatever_the_password_is"
	... vlan stuff

  And don't ask if the password should be "whatever_the_password_is".
