Hello! I am unable to make even a simple PAP cleartext setup work and cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. The note about it should "just work" well not for me so far..... I simply did an apt-get and settings are nearly all defaults. I did add a secret to clients.conf for 127.0.0.1 I tried both settings in modules/pap for auto_header of yes and no. I get this error: root@slim:/etc/raddb# radtest vf5 testing123 localhost 1812 testing123 Sending Access-Request of id 214 to 127.0.0.1 port 1812 User-Name = "vf5" User-Password = "testing123" NAS-IP-Address = 10.70.1.9 NAS-Port = 1812 rad_recv: Access-Reject packet from host 127.0.0.1 port 1812, id=214, length=32 Reply-Message = "Hello, vf5" Simple entry added to default users file: vf5 Cleartext-Password := "testing123" Reply-Message = "Hello, %{User-Name}" proot@slim:/etc/raddb/modules# apt-cache show freeradius Package: freeradius Priority: optional Section: net Installed-Size: 2668 Maintainer: Ubuntu Core Developers <ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com> Original-Maintainer: Stephen Gran <sgran@debian.org> Architecture: i386 Version: 2.1.0+dfsg-0ubuntu2 Provides: radius-server Depends: lsb-base (>= 3.0-6), libc6 (>= 2.4), libfreeradius2 (= 2.1.0+dfsg-0ubuntu2), libgdbm3, libltdl7 (>= 2.2.4), libpam0g (>= 0.99.7.1), libperl5.10 (>= 5.10.0), python2.5 (>= 2.5), freeradius-common Recommends: freeradius-utils Suggests: freeradius-ldap, freeradius-mysql, freeradius-krb5, freeradius-postgresql Filename: pool/main/f/freeradius/freeradius_2.1.0+dfsg-0ubuntu2_i386.deb Size: 1148040 MD5sum: 7576890ba8dccbfb9078b92ba4680bc8 SHA1: 9255fee9508af63e2cf0ff09fe22be8c3b10055f SHA256: 1e1d156ebe3b3bded135adc4b752a62a703dd8cb7253a60f2ec754c1ee0f932a Description: a high-performance and highly configurable RADIUS server A high-performance RADIUS server with support for... - many vendor-specific attributes - proxying and replicating requests by any criteria - authentication on system passwd, SQL, Kerberos, LDAP, users file, or PAM - multiple DEFAULT configurations - regexp matching in string attributes and lots more.
