Some Users are Not AUthenticating

Hi all,

We have a puzzling problem. We are using radius and running it in
debug mode. Looking at the information scrolling by, some users appear
not to be authenticating. We are running radiusNT in odbc and text mode.
The user which is not authenticating has a valid record in the
subaccounts table. All the information in the subaccounts table was
imported from an external source. The masteraccounts table was not
populated. Looking at the SQL Trace of what was going on in the
database, the SQL statement that is authenticating the user is pulling
information from both the masteraccounts and the subaccounts table.
Could this be the reason why some users are not authenticating if there
is no information in the masteraccounts table??

It really is a puzzler because logically no one should be authenticating
but some people are authenticating. We tried the authentication on both
RadiusNT 2.2 and RadiusNT 2.5 with the same result. Help...............
