Hello All freeradius users I have been trying to get my freeradius to do authentication against a passwd-like file using the passwd module. I'm running FreeRadius 2.1.8 on a Debian 4.0 Server used lenny-backports for the installation. My specific configuration to get this working looks like this Passwd module file filename = /etc/tac-plus/passwd format = *User-Name:User-Password hashsize = 0 delimiter = : authtype = pap the password file looks like this /etc/tac-plus/passwd jmd:TLw0SiK4QfQxg:159:20::/home/jmd:/bin/bash users file DEFAULT NAS-IP-Address == 172.31.254.4 Cisco-AVPair += 'Wireless-WCS:role0=SuperUsers', Cisco-AVPair += 'Wireless-WCS:task0=Users and Groups', Cisco-AVPair += 'Wireless-WCS:task1=Audit Trails', There is no problem in stating the freeradius server The debug output look like this when I try to do an authentication using radtest command rad_recv: Access-Request packet from host 127.0.0.1 port 40466, id=179, length=55 User-Name = "jmd" User-Password = "password" NAS-IP-Address = 172.31.254.4 NAS-Port = 0 Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: +- entering group authorize {...} Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: ++[preprocess] returns ok Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: ++[chap] returns noop Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: ++[mschap] returns noop Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: [suffix] No '@' in User-Name = "jmd", looking up realm NULL Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: [suffix] No such realm "NULL" Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: ++[suffix] returns noop Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: [eap] No EAP-Message, not doing EAP Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: ++[eap] returns noop Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: [files] users: Matched entry DEFAULT at line 49 Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: ++[files] returns ok Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: ++[expiration] returns noop Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: ++[logintime] returns noop Thu Jul 8 15:02:10 2010 : Info: [pap] WARNING!
