SYMPTOMS
The Microsoft IAS accounting log shows ClassAttrib in hexadecimal digits instead of ANSI characters. This problem only occurs when other non-Microsoft RAS/NAS devices use IAS server for RADIUS authentication. For example, the log file may contain the following entry:

&quot;MAIL&quot;,&quot;IAS&quot;,06/14/2001,17:42:01,1,&quot;testusr&quot;,&quot;mytestserver.net/Users/testuser&quot;,.....&quot;0x7873746F703A2052756C653131&quot;,,,..

The log that is associated with the &quot;testuser&quot; logon shows &quot;0x7873746F703A2052756C653131&quot; instead of &quot;xstop: Rule11&quot; (the specified string for class attribute 25).
