I'm looking through RFCs 2865 and 5080, and I can’t really find anything specific on the format of the shared secret.
The standards are silent on a lot of topics.
Bloody pain, isn't it?
Must it be pure ASCII, or can it be a hex string? Is there a maximum length (I found the minimum length recommendation)?
There are no format or length limitations on the shared secret.
These have to do with the specifics of the client that I'm developing using the FreeRADIUS client lib.
It's usually implementation-specific. ASCII strings are a good start.
Thanks for the info, Alan. ScottN
