I dimly remember some of the user | documentation with screenshots showing something to this effect also. I haven't played with this on Windows ...

Under Linux the "acu" utility asks for a Username/Password for LEAP but I haven't tried it yet. BTW I now have a sysctl added to the "an" driver to dump Rid records so I can see what the Linux utilities are doing and then compare them to what we do. So I should be able to sniff what the Cisco utility is doing for LEAP at the Rid level. I also added a filter to dump only selected Rids but I have a bug that hangs my machine when I try to parse out the hex number :-(. Doug A.
