I am setting up an Eduroam authentication server using FreeRadius 2.1.1 on Suse Linux 12.

Do you mean 2.1.10? If not, upgrade to 2.1.10.

I am proxying authentication requests to a Cisco ACS. When testing using radtest from the FreeRadius box authentication is proxyed to ACS fine and i get an access-accept back. However when i try from a wireless client the proxy response from the ACS is an Access-Reject. In the failed attempts logs on the ACS it says bad username or password. i'm pretty sure im using the correct password. Is there any reason why this should not work? I've posted my logs below:-

'eduroam' is a case-senstive SSID, it *must* be lowercase otherwise your users will be unable to roam and our users will be unable to visit you.

A complete guess, but considering: * I am probably not legally permitted to answer your email (due to your disclaimer below) * you have not showed an example of the Access-Accept traffic (use tcpdump in verbose mode and/or put a pcap file somewhere) * the problem is your *Cisco* box is rejecting the request, not FreeRADIUS, so why do you not, (a) read your Cisco log files, they will tell you why the request was rejected (b) speak to Cisco, it's their kit and you are paying them for support I am guessing the Cisco box is expecting '@xyz.ac.za' to be appended onto the username, and you have configured FreeRADIUS to strip the realm. Without more information, it is hard to help...if I am legally permitted to according to the terms of your disclaimer... :-/
