I honestly lost track of this issue; the guy had spread it over a couple 
of mailing list posts, and the debug output kept getting sent as either 
URLs I couldn't access, or heavily mangled text, so I'm afraid I drifted 
away.

Can you summarise in brief the setup you have, and as per Alan's 
request, send the full debug output of "radiusd -X" for a failing 
authentication. Please don't trim or edit the output.

By "summarise your setup" I mean:

  * what clients, and how they're setup
  * what NASes
  * what behaviour you're trying to achieve

I'll repeat something I've had cause to say several times recently:

Either:

  1. The client is sending wrong/mismatching usernames
  2. Something along the way is mangling the usernames
  3. You have configured FreeRADIUS to mangle it

There really aren't any other options.
