Hai Alan, 

Thank you for you quick reply. 
I was already waiting for this responce of you. 
As i said..  Winbind auth/samba works..
I can do any test from CLI all work. 

ntlm_auth --request-nt-key --domain=NTDOM --username=username  --password='somepass'
NT_STATUS_OK: The operation completed successfully. (0x0)
ntlm_auth --mschap --request-nt-key --domain=NTDOM --username=username  --password='somepass'
NT_STATUS_OK: The operation completed successfully. (0x0)

wbinfo -a username%'somepass'
plaintext password authentication succeeded
challenge/response password authentication succeeded

I reported so much because i already notice more of these responces of you.. 
And im really sure my base setup is correct.

No it is not, see above.

As shown, it does not. 
This is why im mailing to the list, yes, i know you get lots of these "failures" 
But im also a samba dev and i support the samba list and i know my samba setup works as it should. 

If my squid proxy uses ntlm_auth it works fine. 
So why not in freeradius.. We are missing something here really. 

So please, have a better look, or tell me more where to look. 


Greetz, 

Louis
