you've populated SQL with radius table, you've enabled sql.conf to be
read by uncommenting it..
yes did that
now...have you edited sql.conf and the underlying config files
eg ql/mysql/dialup.conf?
I edited sql.conf file but I didn't do anything to the dialup.conf file, why should I have, more reading now!
finally, to use SQL for client AAA you need to uncomment the
required lines in the server (virtual servers in 2.x) - eg within
the authorise and authenicate sections (for example)
did this had to read the radiusd.conf file to figure that one out.
so as of right now I used the schema.sql to set up a empty database and made up some users in there in radcheck. I start my radius server in debugging mode and mysql server is now being used to authenticate users. I did a radtest with my users in mysql database and got an access accept message which is good. I also used ntraping to test and that was successful. This server right now is not in production, it is just for testing. Right now I am trying where to go next. should I try using chap instead of pap? Now that you asked if I edited the dialup.conf file I will do a littel reading.
