  Please don't post uninformed and incorrect guesses to the mailing list.

  If you don't understand what the server is doing, the reason is most often that your understanding is wrong.  Not that the server is doing something magic.

  No.  That does not happen.  Ever.

  That will not fix the problem.

  The problem is that your LDAP server is returning a redirect.  i.e.

1) you don't know how FreeRADIUS works.  This is understandable, as the server is complicated.

2) you don't know how your own LDAP server works.  This is a problem.

3) You made some erroneous conclusion because of (1) and (2), and 

4) you're giving people the wrong advice.

  Please be sure to give *correct* advice.

  It doesn't help.  It makes things worse.  No one reading this should follow your advice.
