Hi -
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).
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:
000E35-84610A Auth-Type := Local, User-Password == "esradius" 00215C-08B25D Auth-Type := Local, User-Password == "esradius"
When either tries to connect up, in the FR debug I see:
rad_recv: Access-Request packet from host 10.10.18.241:2160, id=7, length=53 User-Name = "00215c-08b25d" User-Password = "00215c-08b25d" Processing the authorize section of radiusd.conf
The authentication eventually fails:
rlm_pap: WARNING! No "known good" password found for the user. Authentication may fail because of this.
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.
That is what MAC authentication is, if the MAC is in the list it can connect. Cheers, Ken
Just simple MAC authentication, that's all I want at this point.
Thanks in advance!
