Situation
In Netware, the server is logging error codes to the RADIUS console
screen consisting of 1642, 1648, 1659, 1667, 1668, 1673, or 1688
(anything in the 1600 to 1699 range).
In Linux, when running FreeRADIUS using the "radiusd -X" command, the errors are shown in the output after attempting a login request.

Resolution
All error codes between 1600 and 1699 are NMAS error codes.
For additional descriptions of the individual error codes, consultTID 3987489 - NMAS Error Codes. Each error will have it's
own
Additional Information
As an example, the 1688 error code for NMAS results from a
limitation on concurrent login requests. Either allowing
additional logins or closing current connections, should prevent
the concurrent login error from occuring. For example,

be used in resolving 1688 (concurrent login) errors.
The radtest cannot be used to test issues with Universal Password, as it always sends credential information in plain-text format, which allows the LDAP binds to occur without attempting Universal Password retrieval.
