SYMPTOMS

You are running Microsoft Internet Authentication Service (IAS) on a computer that is running the Microsoft Windows Server Code Name "Longhorn" operating system. In IAS, the remote access policy has a Generate-Class-Attribute attribute to control whether IAS generates the class attribute in the Access-Accept packet or not. However, the connection request policy in IAS does not include the Generate-Class-Attribute attribute. Therefore, the connection request policy cannot control whether IAS generates the class attribute or not.

If you use the Accept users without validating credentials authentication method in the connection request policy, IAS bypasses the remote access policy. In this case, IAS always generates the value for the class attribute. If you use an extension DLL to generate a customized class attribute, two class attributes may be generated. However, you do not want IAS to generate another class attribute.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
