RadiusNT 2.0 Problems

Just thought I'd better drop you guys a line, 'cos I had a bizarre problem
this afternoon. I have been running Livingston RadiusNT 2.0 for a short
while now, and it seemed to be as stable as a rock, so no problems.
However, I went to see a client, and while I was there I couldn't dial in
and get authentication.

I returned immediately to find that the RadiusNT service had stopped, so I
went to restart it and got error messages saying that it couldn't open
DAO/Jet. I re-installed DAO, no joy, removed DAO and reinstalled, no joy,
even removed DAO and Radius and installed both of them, but still no joy.

In the end, I dug out my copy of Microsoft Office 97 (which was not
installed on that machine) and installed the Data Access modules from the
CD, and voila, it worked!

As a side issue, looking though my logs for RadiusNT, every login session
seems to include the following entry:

date/time: [80] received unknown attribute 77

Any ideas what this is?

Cheers
