SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to authenticate a Nortel (formally Bay Networks) Varsalar 5000, 8000, or Bay 5000/5399 network access server (NAS) to a Windows 2000-based Internet Authentication Service server (with Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service [RADIUS]), you may receive the following error message in the event log and you may not be able to log on to the computer:
RESOLUTION
To resolve this behavior, contact Nortel Technical Support at the following Nortel Web site and request bug fix #CR.143693-1, which had been released on February 15, 2001:
NOTE: This behavior does not occur with the Microsoft NT4-based RADIUS server or other third-party RADIUS servers (for example, the Steel-Belted Radius, a RADIUS server from Funk) that do not take advantage of the additional security enhancements offered in Requests for Comments (RFC) 2869.

MORE INFORMATION
