There are non-hex chars in that string, so it's never going to work.

It works fine. Generate password:

$ echo -n Test | md5sum
0cbc6611f5540bd0809a388dc95a615b  -


Add to users:

bob		MD5-Password := "0cbc6611f5540bd0809a388dc95a615b"


Check:

$ radtest bob Test localhost 1 testing123
Sending Access-Request of id 73 to 127.0.0.1 port 1812
  User-Name = "bob"
  User-Password = "Test"
  NAS-IP-Address = 127.0.0.1
  NAS-Port = 1
  Message-Authenticator = 0x00000000000000000000000000000000
rad_recv: Access-Accept packet from host 127.0.0.1 port 1812, id=73, length=20

Cheers,

Matthew
