Even if you've set the AP's secret to 'testing123', you have to also do it in the clients.conf entry for the AP. So in clients.conf, you have to update this entry:

> client 192.168.0.1 {
> ipaddr = 192.168.0.1 (this is my acces Point)
> secret = 123


Change the secret there from 123 to testing123, then restart FreeRADIUS.

Also, your AP may not be sending a Message-Authenticator attribute, which you got around in the 'client localhost' entry by adding 'require_message_authenticator = no' (see below, directly quoted from your email):

>client localhost {
>        ipaddr = 127.0.0.1
>        secret = 123
>        require_message_authenticator = no
>
>}

Your AP entry does not contain that, so if your AP is not sending a Message-Authenticator attribute, RADIUS will ignore your AP's request too.

Can you send us a debug log of ONE request from localhost (127.0.0.1) and ONE request from your AP with the configuration you have right now?

Don't mess with the configuration, just do a debug log (all the way from the beginning so we can see what the configuration is at that moment).

Thanks! :-)
