Yes, Ascend put in a new "feature" somewhere in 5.0 which sends special
attributes to the RADIUS server which breaks the previous behavior. Luckily,
you can turn it off: Ethernet->Mod Config->Auth->Auth Send Attr. 6,7=No

That should solve your problem. It took me a long while to figure that one
out. I think I read on the list that this was added to support UUNET or MSN.
Why it was made the default, I have no freaking idea (other than the piss
off ISPs and break existing configurations and documentation :) * 0.5
