Radius users state

Hi All,
Is there anyway if the radius client can determine, if the user
authentication failed due to user locked/user-not-existing.

I think the RADIUS doesnt have a field in the response codes to
indicate this information. This might be correct in the sense intruder
doesnt know the  actual reason for authentication failure.

I just wanted to clarify that the information  such as
locked-state/passwdexpired,... cant be obtained through radius client.


Thanks and Best Regards,
