Good evening from Germany,

I installed (for the very first time) freeradius on an Ubuntu 18.04 box.
The version is 3.0.16. I would like to use freeradius to authenticate my
users against Samba passwords using ntlm_auth. I followed EXACTLY the
instructions on the website deployingradius.com, beginning from the
initial setup to the last step, "Configuring FreeRADIUS to use ntlm_auth
for MS-CHAP". Only this last step fails, and I have no idea why. This is
an excerpt of the debug output:

***

I tried with 'radtest -t mschap ...' getting the following answer:

***

Any advices are highly welcome.

Kind regards,
