I have created a local user with the following details: Username : rtest Password :rtest When I use the "radtest rtest rtest localhost 0 testing123 I receive a "Access-Reject packet" Output: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [root@localhost Downloads]# radtest rtest rtest localhost 0 testing123 Sending Access-Request of id 24 to 127.0.0.1 port 1812 User-Name = "rtest" User-Password = "rtest" NAS-IP-Address = 127.0.0.1 NAS-Port = 0 Message-Authenticator = 0x00000000000000000000000000000000 rad_recv: Access-Reject packet from host 127.0.0.1 port 1812, id=24, length=20 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am using the default configuration as below: Output : ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [root@localhost raddb]# radiusd -X FreeRADIUS Version 2.1.12, for host i386-redhat-linux-gnu, built on Jun 22 2012 at 11:10:43 Copyright (C) 1999-2009 The FreeRADIUS server project and contributors.
