I was trying to understand this part from the earlier messages without
success since what you described here for User-Name selection is the way
this is supposed to work.. That's why I asked for debug logs and
configuration files. Anyway, I think I figured out what you mean here
and why that "fixes" the issue (while breaking the contents of the
RADIUS Access-Request).

That thing mentioned in the parenthetical is indeed what should be
happening here.. I did not notice this since I was always testing with
EAP user database that included a wildcard entry that matches with the
ERP keyName-NAI. Anything like "* TLS" in the eap_user.conf would make
this matching work..

I'll modify the User-Name matching code fro RADIUS server to have a
separate check for stored keyName-NAI values for ERP to remove need for
that wildcard entry.
