See I am trying to authenticate against the AD, but in my case the RADIUS
server is running on  a Windows Server and my client is a Linux box.  But
the problem I am having is that when I try to authenticate against the AD
from my Linux box I get error message in /var/log/messages

login[4578]: pam_radius_auth: RADIUS server <Windows_Radius_Server
IP_address> failed to respond
login[4578]: pam_radius_auth: All RADIUS servers failed to respond.

When I go check the log on the Radius server I can see the login attempts
that are made from the Linux box.

So I am not sure where else I can see what I am doing wrong here.

  Yes.  But this won't work for PEAP.
