Hi there,

Yes, of course you were right, the file was named server.pem :) -> bad mistake, sry...

But now I get following errors, but now I don't know what's to do...


rlm_eap: SSL error error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0)
rlm_eap_tls: Error loading randomness
rlm_eap: Failed to initialize type tls
/mypath/freeradius/etc/raddb/eap.conf[17]: Instantiation failed for module "eap"
/mypath/freeradius/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/inner-tunnel[223]: Failed to find module "eap".
/mypath/freeradius/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/inner-tunnel[176]: Errors parsing authenticate section.
 }
}
Errors initializing modules


Sorry guys, but I don't have any experience with certificates ...

Thanks

Michael


That's my eap.conf:

#######################################################################
#
#  Whatever you do, do NOT set 'Auth-Type := EAP'.  The server
#  is smart enough to figure this out on its own.  The most
#  common side effect of setting 'Auth-Type := EAP' is that the
#  users then cannot use ANY other authentication method.
#
#  EAP types NOT listed here may be supported via the "eap2" module.
#  See experimental.conf for documentation.
#
	eap {
		#  Invoke the default supported EAP type when
		#  EAP-Identity response is received.
		#
		#  The incoming EAP messages DO NOT specify which EAP
		#  type they will be using, so it MUST be set here.
		#
		#  For now, only one default EAP type may be used at a time.
		#
		#  If the EAP-Type attribute is set by another module,
		#  then that EAP type takes precedence over the
		#  default type configured here.
		#
		default_eap_type = md5

		#  A list is maintained to correlate EAP-Response
		#  packets with EAP-Request packets.  After a
		#  configurable length of time, entries in the list
		#  expire, and are deleted.
		#
		timer_expire     = 60

		#  There are many EAP types, but the server has support
		#  for only a limited subset.  If the server receives
		#  a request for an EAP type it does not support, then
		#  it normally rejects the request.  By setting this
		#  configuration to "yes", you can tell the server to
		#  instead keep processing the request.  Another module
		#  MUST then be configured to proxy the request to
		#  another RADIUS server which supports that EAP type.
		#
		#  If another module is NOT configured to handle the
		#  request, then the request will still end up being
		#  rejected.
		ignore_unknown_eap_types = no

		# Cisco AP1230B firmware 12.2(13)JA1 has a bug.  When given
		# a User-Name attribute in an Access-Accept, it copies one
		# more byte than it should.
		#
		# We can work around it by configurably adding an extra
		# zero byte.
		cisco_accounting_username_bug = no

		# Cisco LEAP
		#
		#  We do not recommend using LEAP in new deployments.  See:
		#  http://www.securiteam.com/tools/5TP012ACKE.html
		#
		#  Cisco LEAP uses the MS-CHAP algorithm (but not
		#  the MS-CHAP attributes) to perform it's authentication.
		#
		#  As a result, LEAP *requires* access to the plain-text
		#  User-Password, or the NT-Password attributes.
		#  'System' authentication is impossible with LEAP.
		#
		leap {

		#  Generic Token Card.
		#
		#  Currently, this is only permitted inside of EAP-TTLS,
		#  or EAP-PEAP.  The module "challenges" the user with
		#  text, and the response from the user is taken to be
		#  the User-Password.
		#
		#  Proxying the tunneled EAP-GTC session is a bad idea,
		#  the users password will go over the wire in plain-text,
		#  for anyone to see.
		#
		gtc {
			#  The default challenge, which many clients
			#  ignore..
			#challenge = "Password: "

			#  The plain-text response which comes back
			#  is put into a User-Password attribute,
			#  and passed to another module for
			#  authentication.  This allows the EAP-GTC
			#  response to be checked against plain-text,
			#  or crypt'd passwords.
			#
			#  If you say "Local" instead of "PAP", then
			#  the module will look for a User-Password
			#  configured for the request, and do the
			#  authentication itself.

		#
		#  If OpenSSL was not found at the time the server was
		#  built, the "tls", "ttls", and "peap" sections will
		#  be ignored.
		#
		#  Otherwise, when the server first starts in debugging
		#  mode, test certificates will be created.  See the
		#  "make_cert_command" below for details, and the README
		#  file in raddb/certs
		#
		#  These test certificates SHOULD NOT be used in a normal
		#  deployment.  They are created only to make it easier
		#  to install the server, and to perform some simple
		#  tests with EAP-TLS, TTLS, or PEAP.

ta da! what couldnt be clearer? does that file exist, if so does it have
the correct permissions?
