Thanks David. Our NAS is now using Radiator and all of the dial-ins are humming along. One thing that I've broken along the way is inbound telnet sessions, which I use from another office to manage the NAS. I assume this is because the default in my nt.cfg specifies that Radiator tells the NAS all incoming users are to use PPP. My telnet sessions work to the point of successful authentication and then telnet drops out altogether. I guess this is telnet's way of saying it doesn't talk PPP :) Here's my updated nt.cfg: --------------- Foreground LogStdout LogDir . DbDir . <Client DEFAULT> Secret ***** DupInterval 0 </Client> <Realm DEFAULT> <AuthBy FILE> Filename ./rac1 </AuthBy> AcctLogFileName ./detail PasswordLogFileName ./password </Realm> <Realm DUMMY_REALM> <AuthBy NT> Identifier System Domain **** DomainController DefaultReply Service-Type=Framed-User,Framed-Protocol=PPP </AuthBy> </Realm> ------ and here's a snippet of my rac1 (user file) where I've tried to allow the username gpm_cc access via telnet: ----- gpm_cc Auth-Type = System Service-Type = Login-User, Login-Service = Telnet ---- But gpm_cc can't use telnet. Any ideas?
