      Hi, i have a problem with freeradius installation. In my pfsense there is a user list and during the installation the script foresees the creation of users, but previously there was a user with many characters and the error "username too long" appeared. I deleted the user, but if I try to reinstall freeradius, it ends with failed script and always says "username too long", despite being deleted from the pfsense user list. how can i solve? Thank you

        I'm not sure where that error might be coming from, but it would not likely be relating to a user in the pfSense user manager, but a user in the FreeRADIUS settings. You might need to take a backup, edit out the affected settings, restore that, and then try again.
