If you haven't already, check your config into git/svn/whatever so
you can go back to a working version if you break it. It helps,
really.

Just a last reminder that because you're using public certs, you
need to be *very* careful you don't let unwanteds in. For example,
check that another certificate with the subject something.acme.com
from the same CA won't validate.

Good you've got it working. FreeRADIUS has very flexible and
powerful config but it can sometimes take a while to get your head
around it when you're not doing the very basics.
