Okay, many thanks. I think that confirms what I was beginning to
suspect. As initially mentioned this all arose from a disaster recovery
test of our servers. The problem being caused by the fact that we only
have one MS IAS server and in losing that server we would need to let
all users through RADIUS. I think we will either need to get another IAS
server, or perhaps get freeradius to use LDAP calls as a fallback - we
have resilient servers providing ldap information for our web caches. (I
think I prefer this option :-))

Many thanks for all your help.

John.
