wrong user name is stored in mysql radacct table

[Zeli Kartzman]

i was thinking the NAS had something to do with it. is there any way i
can get the NAS to send me the correct user name? we are using cisco
aironet  for access points running IOS 12.3.
or is there any other way to get the correct user name into the table?
thanks

bz

  That is the name sent in the outer TLS tunnel.

  Because that's the name the user is sending in order to login.

  It's not like FreeRADIUS invents random names, and logs them to SQL.
Everything happens because of information the NAS sends in a packet.
