Server: Debian 6 (Squeeze) 2.6.32-5-amd64 FreeRadius: 2.1.10 (Debian package) Client: HP E-MSM460 AP (MSCHAPv2, Use message authenticator) Authentication methods for the MSM460 are: MSCHAPv2, MSCHAP, CHAP, EAP MD5 and PAP. I'm trying to set up a simple MAC-Auth based network using HP 2610 switches and MSM640 wireless APs as radius clients. I've added the AP to the clients.conf and configured the AP to use MAC-based authentication and it appears to be talking to FreeRadius using MSCHAPv2 correctly. We only have a few dozen clients, so I'm using the perl module to read and cache a text file of MAC addresses. My script watches the file's mtime and re-loads it as necessary. I've followed the instructions on http://wiki.freeradius.org/Rlm_perl, but I get the following error: /etc/freeradius/users[204]: Parse error (check) for entry DEFAULT: Unknown value Perl for attribute Auth-Type After some trial and error, I found that adding perl to the authorize and authenticate sections of sites-available/inner-tunnel would get rid of the error, but I have no idea if that solved the problem or merely masked it and caused he next one. There appears to be something seriously wrong with the way this config is working, because rlm_perl is calling the AUTHORIZE function but not AUTHENTICATE. I've pasted the debug of an authentication attempt below. It appears to be taking the CLIENT mschap authentication and somehow applying those attributes to mangle USER authentication. rad_recv: Access-Request packet from host 192.168.0.29 port 35063, id=48, length =275 Acct-Session-Id = "1ca83cd8-00013b2c" NAS-Port = 0 NAS-Port-Type = Wireless-802.11 NAS-Identifier = "CN18D332BD" NAS-IP-Address = 192.168.0.29 User-Name = "984b4af5bf40" Calling-Station-Id = "98:4b:4a:f5:bf:40" Called-Station-Id = "2c:41:38:f4:f5:c0" Service-Type = Login-User MS-CHAP-Challenge = 0x5ec43b8666ef945c1db7a14cc42da516 MS-CHAP2-Response = 0x3000f12947d93103bfe476001a4f8d6fcc6800000000000000 00fe6dae7fbe3907cbb43186ffcc0ed0f6f16a31b47731bdba Colubris-AVPair = "ssid=TSV-UC" Colubris-AVPair = "phytype=IEEE802dot11n" Message-Authenticator = 0xf6affdfe1901c35141d3128eed2c515e # Executing section authorize from file /etc/freeradius/sites-enabled/default +- entering group authorize {...} ++[preprocess] returns ok ++[chap] returns noop [mschap] Found MS-CHAP attributes.
