Hi experts,

I want to try another way to authenticate devices by their MAC
addresses. I don’t really care about the security and just try to make
the configuration easy. Here is my configuration:

 hints =

DEFAULT User-Name =~ 001422.*

Hint = STB

= users =

DEFAULT Hint == STB, Cleartext-Password := %{User-Name}


Why bother with a password at all?

DEFAULT Hint == STB, Auth-Type := Accept

Thanks Phil! It works! It definitely fits what I need! However just be curious, 
why my setting won't work?

Thanks!

I'm not sure. It should work; it seems like the expansion:

  Cleartext-Password := %{User-Name}

...wasn't being acted on. Are you sure you didn't have a typo somewhere?

  The control items aren't expanded in the hints or users file.

  Use unlang.
