I have an x86 PC that I’m trying to run UserManager from, but it doesn’t seem to work. I have another router running a PPPoE server (IP address properly added to UserManager under “Routers”).
When a client tries to authenticate, the router running the PPPoE server returns “<0001>: user [username] authentication failed”
However, when I log into user manager and check the logs, I can see that the status is “Authorization success”
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Did something change in recent RouterOS versions? I am using 6.19 on every board in my lab (including the userman package), but it does not work.
I have even followed the guide here to see if I was making any errors, but apparently I did not:
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/User_Manager/PPP_Example
I copied and pasted every line from this configuration example (I even added 192.168.0.1/24 to the PPPoE server), I only changed the interface names - which obviously had to be done, but I’m getting the exact same problem.
What I found strange is that if I changed my setup so that the PPPoE server and User Manager are on the same board (communicating over 127.0.0.1 localhost IP), it started working (and I had absolutely zero firewall filtering when I kept them on separate boards).
