shared secret problem

Novell/SuSE development has an updated package in testing that fixed my
problem.  I would assume it will be available shortly.

While I do not have a continuing support package with them yet, they took
care of this problem promptly.  Consider me one satisfied user.

Hi,

you welcome ;) If you contact Novell/SuSE and get an answer about this topic
( or maybe a solution ) I would be thankful if you could mail it to this
mailing list. I intend to move on SLES shortly, and now when I know the fact
that freeRadius is not working ( on x86_64 ) whis move could be delayed.

Regards,

Edvin Seferovic

Thanks so much for the information and quick response.  I'll attempt to
contact Novell/SuSE.  I tried the procedure below without much success over
the last week or two.

BINGO... there u go ;)

I was using SuSE PRO 9.1 on x86_64 WHICH WAS BROKEN !! SuSE changed this in
the next version 9.2. Aparently SLES 9 has the same problem. You could try
contacting Novell/SuSe about this ;)

Here is a part of a friendly person from this list which encountered the
same problem, and solved it :

Since, I also got the SuSE 9.2 RPM working on SuSE 9.1 I will include the
more detailed instructions below:
Well I just got mine working on SuSE 9.1 64 bit. It was one heck of a hack,
and probably not done in the correct way, but this is what I did:

1. I grabbed the 9.2 source rpm: freeradius-1.0.0-5.4.src.rpm

2. I ran rpm build --rebuild freeradius-1.0.0-5.4.src.rpm to learn
dependencies. I installed the dependencies I could off of the 9.1
distribution. From the 9.2 distribution I installed:
libnscd-1.0-2.x86_64.rpm and libzio-0.1-4-0.1-4.x86_64.rpm.

3. I thought I had other issues so I also installed
libtool-1.5.8-3.x86_64.rpm and libtool-32bit-9.2-200410061204.x86_64.rpm but
they are probably not required from 9.2.

4. I installed the source rpm.

5. I went into /usr/src/packages/SOURCES and bunzipped
freeradius-1.0.0.0.tar.bz2

6. I cd'ed into the freeradius-1.0.0.0 directory and in Make.inc I modified
the variable LIBLTDL to: LIBLTDL         = /usr/lib64/libltdl.so

7. I re-bzipped the directory so the change was stored in the bzipped file.

8. I cd'ed into the /usr/src/packages/SPEC/ directory and ran: 
rpmbuild -bb freeradius.spec

9. I cd'ed into /usr/src/packages/RPMS/x86_64 and installed the 2 created
packages:
freeradius-1.0.0-5.4.x86_64.rpm
freeradius-devel-1.0.0-5.4.x86_64.rpm

10. eap was still broken so I cd'ed into /usr/src/packages/BUILD/
freeradius-1.0.0/src/modules/rlm_eap/.libs/

11. I copied rlm_eap-1.0.0.soU to /usr/lib/freeradius

12. I cd'ed into /usr/lib/freeradius and did a ln -s rlm_eap-1.0.0.soU
rlm_eap.so

--- cut ---

Maybe you could just take the RPM package from another SuSE distro and try
it. I hope this could help. BTW - I spent over 2 weeks looking for this
crapy error.

Edvin Seferovic

Hi,

can you tell us what operating system are you using?
I had recently problems with SuSE 9.1 where some packages were broken and
therefore the shared secret auth wasn't functioning.

Subject: shared secret problem

If I'm getting a incorrect checksum error on the UDP packet sent from the
client to the server, would that be the cause of my "Shared secret is
incorrect" error?  I've removed/readded the secret on both sides many
times...

If that is the case, I'm assuming the problem is with the md5 hash on the
server and not anything with Freeradius.  Is that correct?

Thanks,
Kris
