I want to offer the choice between ppp and shell login, and thus I am
using the Merit Radius. However, when logging in (without PAP or CHAP), a
ppp is immediately started.
The serial port is configured as login network dialin, with security on;
the entries in the users file are the standard DEFAULT, dumbuser,
pppuser, ...
The ppp is even started when I remove the pppuser entry from the users file.
When I put my port in user login only mode, I get an 'invalid login'
message, which is also reported to my loghost; in the radius logfile,
however, the authentication is said to have succeeded.
For me, it is as if the PM receives a bad or incomplete reply from radius..
Some more technical info: radius 2.4.14 running on a linux box, ComOS 3.1.4.
Has anybody got any ideas to cope with this ?
Thanks,
Bruno
