Shared key mismatch

I have set it on both sides to "x" - is there any way to debug it somehow ? 
I will check it one more time, but only place I can check it is PacketFence 
and it is okay there, so that is why I ask if it is possible to somehow get 
it out of FreeRADIUS.



Thanks

The shared secret is wrong. Fix it.

Re-start FreeRADIUS after changing the secret.

Look at the packet traces and do the MD5 calculations. In short.. no.

This is cause by one of two issues:

1) the shared secret is wrong (99.999% of the time)

2) one system is calculating MD5 hashes incorrectly
