<html><head><style type='text/css'>p { margin: 0; }</style></head><body><div style='font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt; color: #3366FF'>Hi -<br><br>I have just started tinkering with Freeradius, I built an Ubuntu 8.10 server box and installed FR --> sudo apt-get install freeradius*. It installed in a breeze and tested fine. I have setup a HP420 AP for testing, it's chattering with the FR box fine (I think).<br><br>I want my wireless clients to do MAC authentication via the FR box. I have setup my users file to auth two of my test laptops:<br><br>000E35-84610A Auth-Type := Local, User-Password == "esradius"<br>00215C-08B25D Auth-Type := Local, User-Password == "esradius"<br><br>When either tries to connect up, in the FR debug I see:<br><br>rad_recv: Access-Request packet from host 10.10.18.241:2160, id=7, length=53<br> User-Name = "00215c-08b25d"<br> User-Password = "00215c-08b25d"<br> Processing the authorize section of radiusd.conf<br><br>The authentication eventually fails:<br><br>rlm_pap: WARNING! No "known good" password found for the user. Authentication may fail because of this.<br><br>Why is the User-Password the MAC address and not what is specified in the users file? I have only tweaked the users and clients.conf files.<br><br>Just simple MAC authentication, that's all I want at this point.<br><br>Thanks in advance!<br><br>- Steve<br><br><br><br></div></body></html>
