With each of these I still have the problem where the Access-Request packet doesn't contain a User-Password attribute. I am guessing that there is something very fundamental that I am not understanding.. like "there isn't supposed to be a User-Password attribute coming from the AP" but if that's the case then I really don't understand how we authenticate against the LDAP directory without a password.
Hi there, Do some reasearch on configuring TTLS with FreeRadius -- there's a howto around somewhere. Once you get TTLS/PAP working (with the auth info in the users file), you can easily make LDAP work. An understanding of the tunnelling system used with most 802.1x auth protocols would be helpful for you -- the trouble is that the password is inside the tunnel, and your FreeRadius config isn't understanding your tunnel. -kb -- Kris Benson, CCP, I.S.P.
