Re: [RadiusNT] Platypus, RadAdmin & SQL

One more try -
Platypus is on this machine & it connects to the SQL Server.
I can also connect via ODBC options in Control Panel
I canNOT connect via Radius NT.
This is why I'm stumped. I selected the Platypus2 DSN & it didn't work.
Since this machine is also the Primary DNS - would that cause this problem?

:HI

:Do you have Platypus installed on this machine? Try it - remebering that
:the Plat install will re-boot the computer when it is fininshed. If Plat
:works, so should Radius.
:
:When I switched from Emerald to Plat, I just went into the Emerald DSN and
:pointed it at the new database, and all went well.
:
:If you can get Plat to work, use radadmin to select the Platypus2 DSN.
