Hi Everyone
I think I am getting ahead but now I got the following error:
[pap] WARNING! No "known good" password found for the user. Authentication may
fail because of this.
++[pap] returns noop
No authenticate method (Auth-Type) configuration found for the request:
Rejecting the user
Failed to authenticate the user.
I was just trying to setup PAP (testuser) on the radius
Would you know what the error could be ?
You have to configure FreeRADIUS to tell it where to find users and
their passwords. Are they in the FreeRADIUS users file? Are they system
users with login accounts? Are they in an ldap directory? Are they in a
SQL database?
If you're trying to just confirm PAP is working then have you read and
followed the example here:
http://deployingradius.com/documents/configuration/pap.html
BTW, deployingradius.com is the only other web site besides the
FreeRADIUS site and it's wiki that is recommended because it's run by
Alan DeKok the principal developer of FreeRADIUS. Other web sites tend
to have out of date information or erroneous information.
Also, note that the users file is read upon server start up, if you
modify the users file (or any other file read by the server) you'll have
to restart the server to see the change. There are other ways to get the
server to reload it's files but since you're new to this we're going to
keep it simple. As a side note, one advantage of using LDAP or SQL as
your backend data source is you can add, remove, and edit the data in
the backend and the FreeRADIUS server will immediately see the change
without having to do anything special, thus you can immediately see one
disadvantage of user data stored in files as opposed to a dynamic backend.
