Guest Roostermiester Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 I've setup Server 2008 NPS (which is also functioning as a DC) to authenticate wireless clients through a Cisco 2106 wireless lan controller. The computer certs are auto installed through Group Policy. However, when it attempts to authenticate I recieve the following error: Log Name: Security Source: Microsoft-Windows-Security-Auditing Date: 6/2/2008 12:24:38 PM Event ID: 6273 Task Category: Network Policy Server Level: Information Keywords: Audit Failure User: N/A Computer: DC1.coaccess.com Description: Network Policy Server denied access to a user. Contact the Network Policy Server administrator for more information.

I haven't been able to come up with any good reason for the error. I do recall having similar issues in a previous deployment and the solution was to modify the computer name, but that has not worked in this case. Any ideas what is causing this error? Thanks Quote
Guest James McIllece [MS] Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 The NPS troubleshooting topic "Event ID 6273  NPS Authentication Status" might be of some assistance to you. http://technet2.microsoft.com/WindowsServe...eb1eec1033.mspx Also, just for future reference, the IAS/NPS Usenet newsgroup is microsoft.public.internet.radius "Roostermiester" wrote: <span style="color:blue"> > I've setup Server 2008 NPS (which is also functioning as a DC) to > authenticate wireless clients through a Cisco 2106 wireless lan controller. > The computer certs are auto installed through Group Policy.
