Hi Alan and thank you so much for answering Keeping in mind that the system in question is an OpenWRT (hence minimal install):
The directory "raddb/certs" has a README The directory is /etc/freeradius2/certs (?) and has no README, also no man pages so as to save on space. Anyway , I read the file from http://openisp.net/openisp/unxsVZ/browser/trunk/unxsRadius/setupradius/raddb... But this is not possible since a router environment is not suitable for git + building things. But more importantly:
The incoming request doesn't use certificate authentication So that means the certificate business is not of immediate relevance to my problem? Good to hear!
1) what client did you use to send the Access-Request? ssh into box and: echo "User-Name = steve, User-Password = testing" | radcli ent -x 192.168.1.2 auth mysecret
3) Why did you send the Access-Request? To debug freeradius config since wifi connection attempt fails with very little info. Also, to isolate any wrong settings on the network config side of the router's admin webpage.
The whole point of running in debugging mode is to READ IT I read the output several times before posting - nothing out of the ordinary and all modules are loaded smoothly. Also, no debug info in /var/log/radius.log - not even when I increase log-level in /etc/freeradius2/radiusd.conf.

Since I'm new to this method, apologies if posting through direct e-mail does not post as foloow-up for initial topic.
