I think you need to update your dictionary to inform Radius NT of the proper
size and data type for this odd VSA.

When Radius NT reads your tables that comprise the dictionary that data is
used to tell it how to parse that data from the incoming packets.
If the data is wrong it ( my understanding here ) starts reading the wrong
bytes in memory and winds up crashing.

If you know how to decode the data (it's not tooo hard but a pain) you may
be able to debug it by running this:

C:\> Radius -x15 -X >C:\mydebug.log

And then read that file
It will have each incoming packet dumped in hex format
Use the RadiusNT manual to help you decode the data, the section that lists
the radius attributes by number
Tells you the data type and size ... if you know hex and a bit of how
packets look you can work it out and see the place where it gets hung.

PS: -X is a different play than -x15 it makes the heX dump :-- )

I have fixed it (sort of)

with the following query:
"update radattributes set radattributeid=2600 where radattributeid=26"

(Basically removing all VSA's) It now doesn't quit..........

What is going on ??

Cheers

Phil

Sorry after re-reading this message I meant to say that using radlogin to
send STOP records works flawlessly and creates the correct entries in the
calls table.......

Cheers

Subject: [RadiusNT] RadiusNT 3.0.184 , Quitting on Accounting STOP.

Hi,

I am attempting to setup RadiusNT 3.0.184 to work with our Dial-in provider
(NTL) who use a Nortel CVX.

Every time it receives a stop record from this particular NAS it quits. This
happens whether it is run as a service or -x (tried from -x1 to -x15) (-x15
output follows)

I have tried various options (including removing the VSA that I have created
which I have called Nortel-Details. I have tried creating this field in the
calls table, tried using stop records only mode and various other things.

It is only 203 characters but does seem to kill RadiusNT (maybe a buffer is
a bit small ???)

It is on Windows 2000 Advanced Server (SP1) with MSSQL7 SP3

I have tried and SQL log and there are NO queries happening at the time of
the failure. I have also used the STOP record only feature of radlogin and
it hasn't worked either

Does anyone have any ideas at all as I am starting to get desperate ???? I
am waiting for NTL to get back to me as to whether they can remove this
attribute.

Cheers

Phil
