Cisco IP Phone 802.1x EAP-TLS troubles

Hello,
I'm running freeRADIUS v3.0.8.  My first goal is just to get all our
Cisco phones authorized.  I want freeRADIUS to accept all phones based
on the certificate presented by the supplicant.  The phones should
present Cisco's manufacturer-installed-certificate, and Cisco provides
the CA certs for download, which I have done.  I put the Cisco CA
certs into /etc/freeradius/certs, changed eap config to use ca_path
instead of ca_file, but I still get this:

-------------------------

--------------------------------

I'm a total noob at PKI and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
Is this even possible to do?
