ERROR: No authenticate method (Auth-Type) found for the request: Rejecting the user

[Shravan S G]

Hi all,

I am trying to configure FreeRadius 2.2.0. I am trying to test with the
radtest utility. However, when I run radtest, on my radiusd server, I get
the following error - "ERROR: No authenticate method (Auth-Type) found for
the request: Rejecting the user". I know this is some issue with the
authentication part. However, I have not been able to pinpoint the problem.
Also, I haven't been able to find any relevant solutions on the web.
I have just untarred the 2.2.0 tarball, and added just one line the users
file: gokul Cleartext-Password:="abcde"
Below is the output on the server and the client side:

This is m first attempt at using FreeRadius, so please let me know if I
have made any rookie mistakes. :)

Thanks in advance.
