I have been running Freeradius for a while but It can only use CHAP and for some reason I can not get PAP to work. I have the config set to the basic on most things. Can anyone help me figure out if I am missing something Thanks

Please run freeradius in debug mode (radiusd -X) and post the output.

Hi,

try removing the default System authentication method from your users file.

Working now! i changed "system to "radius" in the users file and now it's working. # First setup all accounts to be checked against the UNIX /etc/passwd. # (Unless a password was already given earlier in this file). # DEFAULT Auth-Type = Radius Fall-Through = 1 Many tnx Yves

Is the users password defined in line 217?

rad_check_password: Found Auth-Type System auth: type "System" Processing the authenticate section of radiusd.conf modcall: entering group authenticate for request 0 modcall[authenticate]: module "unix" returns notfound for request 0

OK, what part of that is unclear? It looks like line 154 of the "users" file sets Auth-Type to System, and you later try to give the user a clear-text password. If you don't want to authenticate against /etc/password, don't set Auth-Type to System. Alan DeKok.
