(ASCEND) Change in defaults when upgrading from 4.x to 5.0Ap13?
Greetings. It's been a couple of years now since I've had the occasion
to spend much time on my Max, so bear with me if I've missed something
obvious due to my memory fog...
We've been running version 4.6Cp30 for quite some time, and we finally
got around to installing 5.0Ap13 yesterday. Immediately we ran into a
problem whereby our modem users weren't being authorized the way they
used to. In our radius file, each user is defined as simply:
jcday Password = "Unix",
Ascend_Idle-Limit = 3600
With that definition when running 4.x, modem users could dial in and use
PPP (e.g., using DUN in Win95) or simple telnet, or they could invoke
PPP from the command line after logging in at the Max command prompt.
After moving to 5.0Ap13, however, the above definition is allowing only
PPP as implemented in W95 - users can't invoke PPP from the command
line.
Since we didn't modify Radius, it looks like something changed in the
Max? Rereading the Radius doc, my impression is that it was working
correctly before, i.e., since I don't specify a "User-Service" tag, it
defaults to allowing both methods of invoking PPP and regular old
telnet.
We hacked our radius users file to now include "User-Service=Framed
User" for every single user entry, but while that now allows both modes
of PPP, it prevents telnet sessions...
Questions:
1) What do I need to do to get this back working such that modem users
can use any of the three methods?
2) What changed (or what idiotic thing did I screw up this time?)
Thanks in advance for any ideas...
John
