Error in user authentication : Freeradius + MySQL - Failed to create the pair: Invalid vendor name in attribute name "Password"

[Karuppasamy, Senthil]

Thanks for the quick reply. It worked but am still getting an access reject in the authenticate section :

(3) Found Auth-Type = Local
(3) # Executing section authenticate from file /etc/raddb/sites-enabled/default
(3) Failed to authenticate the user.
(3) Login incorrect: [test/test] (from client DUT1 port 0 cli 10.120.92.40)

Am I missing something here ? Shouldn't Auth-Type as Local mean that he validates it against the username in the radcheck table ( namely test in this case ) ?

  There is no such attribute named "Password".  Use "Cleartext-Password".

  Please don't do that.  It's not necessary.
