I configured freeradius on a Fedora Core 6 machine to use PAP against a cisco switch
radtest on localhost is successfully. I think radiusd.conf users and clients.conf files are ok

>From the cisco device after I insert user and password telnetting to it I got:

% Backup authentication
000206: Apr  5 12:42:29: %RADIUS-4-RADIUS_DEAD: RADIUS server 172.25.110.8:1645,
1646 is not responding.
000207: Apr  5 12:42:29: %RADIUS-4-RADIUS_ALIVE: RADIUS server 172.25.110.8:1645
,1646 has returned.

the cisco device won't let me log in... 172.25.110.8 is the right IP of the freeradius

And this is the freeradius server log:

I can't figure out what's wrong... It's seems that something missing on the cisco side
Is right that radius send back Access-Accept on port 21645? 

Thanks in advance
