<div><br></div><div>So far so good and pretty happy with NPS as RADIUS server, our ASA firewalls didn't like the previous FreeRADIUS server (a kludgy port running in Windows) for some reason occasionally refusing to authenticate, whereas the new Windows server works with the ASA's without a problem, only slight glitch I've seen so far is that the RADIUS "Reply-Message" attribute is printed twice when you login, not sure if this is a bug in the ASA's handling of those messages as all our other switches just show the reply message once.</div>
