I was having same message (rlm_eap_tls: Requiring client certificate) 
because there was a mistake in eap.conf.
Look at "default_eap_type = ttls" line under "eap {" or "tls {" (not sur 
efor the right place because I've a similar problem to your now)

        eap {
                default_eap_type = ttls
                timer_expire     = 60
                ignore_unknown_eap_types = no
                cisco_accounting_username_bug = no

                # Supported EAP-types
                md5 {
                }
                # EAP-TLS
                tls {
                #       default_eap_type = ttls
                        private_key_password = astronomie

EAP-TTLS has two phase : one to establish tunnel (server send it 
certificate), second to authenticate client (it send encrypted 
username/password)

Hope to help you (else, contact me directly in french david.roumanet $ 
grenet.fr)
