More on my radius problem..

I've been watching my radius spit out debug stuff so I can try and figure
out what's wrong with it..

This next bunch of info came with an account that was given an "invalid
login" message..
============
radrecv: Request from host c7023002 code=1, id=113, length=61
User-Name = "barer.ppp"
Password = "\014z)\216\341vl>s\003J\241x%\350B"
Client-Id = 199.2.48.2
Client-Port-Id = 21
msc_default = DEFAULT.ppp
name = barer.ppp
Sending Ack of id 113 to c7023002 (matrix1.cyberspace.com)
User-Service-Type = Framed-User
Framed-Protocol = PPP
Framed-Routing = None
Framed-MTU = 1500
==========
Next I tried the barer.ppp with a wrong password and got this..
==========
radrecv: Request from host c7023002 code=1, id=125, length=61
User-Name = "barer.ppp"
Password = "\365"\351\336\255\033~a\0271\205_\020nkv"
Client-Id = 199.2.48.2
Client-Port-Id = 27
msc_default = DEFAULT.ppp
name = barer.ppp
Sending Reject of id 125 to c7023002 (matrix1.cyberspace.com)
=========
Then I typed in a completely bogus username and password, and it returned
this..
==========
radrecv: Request from host c7023002 code=1, id=119, length=61
User-Name = "loser.ppp"
Password = "\353|q\311i|gtq\377\211i\372\242\031\354"
Client-Id = 199.2.48.2
Client-Port-Id = 21
msc_default = DEFAULT.ppp
name = loser.ppp
Sending Reject of id 119 to c7023002 (matrix1.cyberspace.com)
=========
OK now tell me I'm an idiot if I'm wrong here.. but it looks like the
first try with "barer.ppp" which is an actual username on our system and
the correct password was going to start but then didn't for some reason
and finally it gave the "Invalid Login" message.

(One strange thing is that if a person logs into the shell account it
works correctly.. that with just the username "barer")

The second and third tries show it sending the "Reject"'s instead of the
"ACK"'s.. so they're obviously wrong..

Can someone maybe take a look at this and tell me if my configuration of
my PM2e is wrong? Would any kind of wrong configuration in the PM2e cause
these "Invalid Logins"?

Thanks..
