Hello everyone.
I got some questions regarding how to make a certificate that works towards
windows clients while running Freeradius with PEAP.
Well I have read on the wiki for Freeradius about making a standalone cert for
windows clients (root cert) but why do i need that installed on the windows
clients when i want to run peap? Isn´t peap meant to work in the way that you
shouldnt have to install stand alone certs in the users computers?
Anyway... I dont really understand what it is that i need to do to make real
certificates, I´ve read the "readme" file in raddb/certs but dont understand
what it says. I have got ca.cnf anf ca.pem etc since i started the radius
server the first time where it said that it made some certs, which i guess it
test certificates... the readme file only says that i should remove the old
ones but when i try to get into the certs folder through the terminal it says i
do not have permission to go into that folder.. Im using Ubuntu Desktop and I
dont know a way to get into the folder with the root other than typing "sudo cd
certs" which do not work. :/
Can I ignore the part which says that I need to remove the certs created when i
run the server the first time and just do changes in the ca.cnf?
As a sidenote, I´ve never worked with certificates before, I know what they are
meant to do but more than that i dont know.
Best regards/ Peter Carlstedt
