      4. Enrol this new user into a course.
      5. Update to the current release.
      6. Check that RADIUS is to be deleted.
      7. Go to the Manage authentication page [Site administration  ► Plugins  ► Authentication  ► Manage authentication] and check that RADIUS is not in the table.

    • 3.2 Sprint 7

      Radius is now using the mcrypt php functions which are deprecated as of php 7.1 (see here for details). The suggestion has been that we move this authentication plugin and the supporting libraries into contrib.

      Libraries to be moved as well (double check they are not used elsewhere):
      lib/pear/Auth
      lib/pear/Crypt
