Unknown Radius Client (Nw6.5 / BM3.8)

Question

Hi All
We recently built a test NW6.5 server, installed BM3.8 and setup radius,
tested using radping and worked.
We then built the server into the live LAN and we get the error "Unknown
Radius Client"
Versions on server are:
EDIR 87.3.0
NICI 2.6.4
NMAS 2.3.3
Errors we get:
Radius screen : "Unknown Radius Client"
Radius debug screen : "CacheReadSecretForNASAddress failed, no such radius
client (-822)
We are using the consoleone from the new server, created new objects and
objects retain info
We did TID100911107 followed all instructions and still no change.
Just ran NMASMON and get the following log entry when running RADIUS
REFRESHCACHE:
GetLoginConfig: -672
NMAS_GetLoginConfig: -672
Any ideas/assistance will be appreciated

Answer 1

Hello,
maybe the TID 10091107 from Novell will help.
http://support.novell.com/cgi-bin/se...?/10091107.htm
fix
1. RADIUS REFRESHCACHE- Forces radius to re-read the Dialup access
system object.
2. Verify the SDI (Security Domain Infrastructure) is synchronized and
all servers have the same set of SDI keys.
a. Follow TID - 10088626 Using SDIDiag to gather specific SDKey
information from servers to create the LIST.TXT, SERVER.TXT and
PROCESS.TXT.
Review the PROCESS.TXT file and verify all servers have the exact same
keys.
Keys must be sychronized.
3. Apply the latest NMAS public patch available at Security Updates at
http://support.novell.com (when this solution was written, the latest
public
release that resolved this issue was NMAS 2.3.4 (nmsrv234.tgz)
Kind regards from Germany
