OK - problem fixed. For all the clueless like me out there I suspect the problem was:
1) Radiusd needs to be restarted if you change the users file ? What this will show up is if there are any problems in the users file. I am not sure if this is the recommended approach as it is not mentioned anywhere in the troubleshooting or the testing notes.
It's in the documentation. And it's also the standard Unix practice. Configuration files are loaded on start, or re-loaded on HUP. Nothing else.
2) What it did show up when restarting was two issues: A spelling mistake in my Cleartext statement, and it appears as if "tab" must be used and not "space". Again could not find anything in the troubleshooting or other getting started guides so not sure if this is the case. It certainly fixed my problem.
It's in the "man" page for the "users" file.
If the above are indeed requirements - can they be added to the section for beginners please and hopefully save hours and hours of trying to get something we are unfamiliar with working.?
We can add more documentation. But at some point, I have to question the value of re-documenting things which are already extensively documented. Alan DeKok.
