<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>I apologize for not using
proper terms since this is new to me, I tend to associate to something I do
know.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>1.) Since I attempting to use the sql
database for authentication purpose, would it be best if I made sure that <A
href="mailto:radius@localhost">radius@localhost</A> (my username I chose) be in
the users file and also be granted privileges on the sql database (I chose to
call it radius as well)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>2.) When doing the radtest, would the
proper syntax be radtest radius radiustest localhost 1645 baseball (with
baseball being the shared secret also entered into the clients.conf file) or
should there be quotes around the shared secret. My apologies for calling
it a preshare key. This is an IPSec term that I have used for a few
years.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>3.) I have read documentation.
I have bought the O'Reilly Book and read it. I have reinstalled my server
and all to no avail. I appreciate the help you all give, but I am
stuck. I am sure I overlooked the issue, but at this point, I cannot see
it. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks again.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>A couple questions I have not asked
about this issue? Do both the <A
href="mailto:user@localhost">user@localhost</A> and localhost need access to the
Sql database. I am at a loss as to why everytime I run this process, it
tells me that I have an invalid preshare key. Do they preshare keys need
to be in quotes. If I have a user called radius with a password of
radiustest and my localhost preshare is BASEBALL, then would my syntax be,
radtest radius radiustest localhost 1645 BASEBALL ? Or woudl I need to put
quotes around the alpha characters. I cannot move on until I get this
resolved obviously and I am not sure where to try. I can get issues
resolved with the SQL portion, but to get it to see the local host, I am at a
loss. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If anyone can think of anything else I can possibly
try, please let me know. If not, I appreciate all your
efforts.</FONT></DIV>
