IAS, RAdius and AD

[Andy Knight]

I am in the process of putting in an Active Directory 2003
domain. Currently I have an NT4.0 domain which operates a
2-way trust to the AD domain. Our RAS server is a windows
2000 server which also has IAS radius running on it.
Before I started mass moving users onto the new domain I
thought i would check that a user account migrated onto
the AD domain could still use the RAS server on the NT4.0
domain as we have quite a few RAS users. Every time I try
to authenticate when dialling up I get an IAS error
message in the system event log on the RAS server with
Reason-Code = 6. I have looked this error up on
microsofts site and all it says is "IAS Server
unavailable". How can this be when the RAS server I am
dialling is also the IAS server? Dialling up using an
account from the NT4.0 domain works fine with no
authentication issues at all and I am using the same
client for both tests.

Did you define a Policy for the 2003 Domain users in IAS? I think this is
the problem. Also look at the event log on the RADIUS server, it will point
you to where the issue is coming from.
