Sometimes passwords are coming in with junk

[Sam T]

Hi!

We are getting close to a workable solution with freeradius!

When running freeradius in debug mode we can see that sometimes it comes in
correctly, and other times in some kind of junky value.

We need some help to see if this is an encrypt/decrypt issue, and where we
may be able to align things to have 100% success rate with password
traversing.

some interesting things. When we login and get a =failed, we can generally
get a success the 2nd time when trying again right away.

here is some of the data pulled from debug. both times password was 000000

rad_recv: Access-Request packet from host 67.168.xxx.6 port 44529, id=58,
length=173
    User-Name = "freetest01"
    Acct-Session-Id = "1848a37b"
    NAS-Identifier = "712-xxxxxx"
    Framed-IP-Address = 10.255.10.51
    NAS-Port-Id = "ssid1_1848a37b"
    Calling-Station-Id = "2C-6E-85-95-C1-C6"
    Called-Station-Id = "AC-86-74-7A-35-10"
    Class = 0x47726f75703d33362c5376633d3531
    Event-Timestamp = "Nov  1 2018 08:37:03 UTC"
    Service-Type = Login-User
    User-Password = "`\033\244\361\310\337H"
    NAS-Port = 35
    NAS-IP-Address = 192.168.1.128

# Executing section authorize from file
/etc/freeradius/sites-enabled/xxxxxx.rad

then

rad_recv: Access-Request packet from host 67.168.xxx.6 port 57254, id=178,
length=173
    User-Name = "freetest01"
    Acct-Session-Id = "3b6dcf1b"
    NAS-Identifier = "712-xxxxxx"

    NAS-Port-Id = "ssid1_3b6dcf1b"

    Event-Timestamp = "Nov  1 2018 08:32:55 UTC"
    Service-Type = Login-User
    User-Password = "000000"
    NAS-Port = 35
