All,

I appreciate the help you have given me on this and I am pretty sure I am like one or two changes off the correct path.

When I do the radtest, it always tells me that:

[root@cleveland ~]# radtest atkinsd xxxxx lhost 1645 xxxx

Sending Access-Request of id 168 to 127.0.0.1 port 1812

        User-Name = "atkinsd"

        User-Password = "xxxxx”

        NAS-IP-Address = 255.255.255.255

        NAS-Port = 1645

Re-sending Access-Request of id 168 to 127.0.0.1 port 1812

        User-Name = "atkinsd"

        User-Password = "xxxxx”

        NAS-IP-Address = 255.255.255.255

        NAS-Port = 1645

rad_recv: Access-Reject packet from host 127.0.0.1:1812, id=168, length=20

rad_decode: Received Access-Reject packet from client 127.0.0.1 port 1812 with invalid signature (err=2)!  (Shared secret is incorrect.)

I have checked and double checked the shared secret in Users, sql.conf, radiusd.conf.

Any ideas?

Thanks again
