Elektron 2.0.2118

Today we posted Elektron 2.0.2118 for both Windows and Mac OS X. This is a bug fix release, adding the following fixes:

• Fixed a small memory leak when using ODBC for authentication
• Fixed a bug formatting Elektron account usernames in Elektron Settings
• Fixed a bug that prevented PEAP users from successfully authenticating against an upstream RADIUS server
• Fixed a bug that prevented MAC address authentication with certain Netgear devices
• Changed the message logged when an invalid Message-Authenticator is received
• Fixed a bug that resulted in Directory Services authentication failing for users who are members of many groups
• Fixed a bug that resulted in a spurious EAP-FAST PAC logging message
• Fixed a bug that prevented EAP-FAST from successfully authenticating MS-CHAPv2 users over non-anonymous connections
• Fixed a bug that could cause a crash on Windows when running with Delay Access-Reject (an option that is disabled by default)
• Fixed a bug in the Elektron Settings application that would cause username triggers to appear incorrect after reordering policies

If you have enabled the "Delay Sending Access-Reject Messages" option (see Elektron Settings->Authentication Settings) on a Windows server, this is a necessary upgrade. If you are using EAP-FAST or using Elektron as a front end to another RADIUS server, this is a recommended upgrade. As always, please let us know if you have any trouble or questions.
