convert mac adresses to lower case

[PENZ Robert]

Hi!

I'm running

# rpm -qa | grep radius
freeradius2-mysql-2.1.7-7.el5
freeradius2-2.1.7-7.el5
freeradius2-python-2.1.7-7.el5
freeradius2-utils-2.1.7-7.el5

and I've different switch types. Some send the MAC address lower case the others upper case. For switches which send it lower it case it works (as the macs are stored lower case in the db). How can I convert them all in the clear text password attribute to lower case? The attr_rewrite module looks good, but the only way I see is to have 6 rewrite rules each replacing one letter, but that seems inefficient. The matching in the SQL Database works case insensitive and returns a row but the pap check logs following:

rlm_sql (sql): Released sql socket id: 1
+++[sql] returns ok
++- policy redundant returns ok
++[expiration] returns noop
++[logintime] returns noop
++[pap] returns updated
Found Auth-Type = PAP
+- entering group PAP {...}
[pap] login attempt with password "0025B3A013AA"
[pap] Using clear text password "0025b3a013aa"
[pap] Passwords don't match
++[pap] returns reject
Failed to authenticate the user.

I tried to remove pap but then I get following

+++[sql] returns ok
++- policy redundant returns ok
++[expiration] returns noop
++[logintime] returns noop
WARNING: Please update your configuration, and remove 'Auth-Type = Local'
WARNING: Use the PAP or CHAP modules instead.
User-Password in the request does NOT match "known good" password.
Failed to authenticate the user.

Hope someone can help me. Thx!

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
