Hi All,
=20
I am using free radius server with dot1X. and supplicant is on
windows XP. Here when I use user name <=3D 3 letters I am getting
following error...
=20
1. Received packet from 192.168.112.90 with invalid
Message-Authenticator! (Shared secret is incorrect.)
=20
and for user name <=3D3 my client is getting following error.
2. Malformed RADIUS packet from host 192.168.0.1: too short (length
17 < minimum 20).

where as radius RFC say... user name length can be >=3D 3.=20

since user name goes as part of attributes in radius packet... but
errors we are getting are totally different.=20

I mean first we are getting related to message-authenticator where as we
are passing username with length <=3D3. and second error my client getting
is related to packet length...another interesting thing is we get these
errors only for PEAP configuration.... this will work for MD5 and
others.

can any one help me in this.=20

whether we are getting different errors because both of us may be using
different versions of RADIUS server? just a guess.=20

This error may be because of RADIUS client or server?

Thanx in Advance...

---Raghu.
