FreeRadius upgrade from 1.3 to 2.0.4

[Alan Buxey]

Hi,

>  I recently upgraded one of our freeradius servers from 1.3.3 to 2.0.4. We use this for mac authentication for wireless which is working fine and also ldap authentication for our vpn users.

just to note there was never a 1.3 or a 1.3.3 version of FreeRADIUS. the 1x train has 1.0.3 or 1.1.3
but stops, currently at 1.1.8

> The problem I am having with the ldap authentication is that when a user tries to authenticate with their user at domain, it does not work! However, it works fine if the user does not add the domain name. Is there a glitch with v2.0.4 or a configuration issue that I am missing?

any particular reason for the 2.0.4 version? there were many bugs in the 2.0.x train - I would serious
consider running the latest 2.1.x release  (version 2.1.8)

the full debug will show what and why things happen to the Stripped-User-Name - 
did you migrate you config to 2.0.4 or just dump the 1.x config over the top? if
you did the latter then you are doomed to wierd issues happening.
