Mac PEAP authentication with FreeRADIUS Pre2.0

[Michael Griego]

Yes, it looks like your Mac may not like the MSCHAPv2 response for  
some reason.  On your Mac (as root), create the directory /var/log/ 
eapolclient, then retry your authentication.  The EAP client is OS X  
should write out debugging information for the EAP session into that  
directory and should give you a better idea of why its halting.
