Hi,

I moved EAP above LDAP in the config, and it seems to have eliminated those when EAP returns 'ok', but I'm still seeing some.  It looks like when EAP returns 'updated' it still runs anonymous through LDAP.

1.x or 2.x?  in 2.x you can configure EAP to use the inner-tunnel
virtual server and then it'll stop hitting the outer authentication LDAP
