Hi Victor,



Thanks for the insight...Actually I turned on debug radius, and found that
the radius did not have the same username/password combination as the client
software.

Thanks for everyones time
Hagop

Should not be a problem.
More recent IOSes hide it, older ones don't.

Have you already tried
debug radius
debug aaa authen
debug aaa author

on the NAS and detailed debug on the radius server?
Are you sure the auth-port and acct-port are correct? More recent
radius daemons should listen on ports 1813 and 1812 IMHO.
