Hi Alan and thank you so much for answering Keeping in mind that the system in question is an OpenWRT (hence minimal install): > The directory "raddb/certs" has a README The directory is /etc/freeradius2/certs (?) and has no README, also no man pages so as to save on space. Anyway , I read the file from http://openisp.net/openisp/unxsVZ/browser/trunk/unxsRadius/setupradius/raddb/certs/README?rev=1 But this is not possible since a router environment is not suitable for git + building things. But more importantly:
> The incoming request doesn't use certificate authentication So that means the certificate business is not of immediate relevance to my problem? Good to hear! > 1) what client did you use to send the Access-Request? ssh into box and: echo "User-Name = steve, User-Password = testing" | radcli ent -x 192.168.1.2 auth mysecret > 3) Why did you send the Access-Request? To debug freeradius config since wifi connection attempt fails with very little info. Also, to isolate any wrong settings on the network config side of the router's admin webpage. > The whole point of running in debugging mode is to READ IT I read the output several times before posting - nothing out of the ordinary and all modules are loaded smoothly. Also, no debug info in /var/log/radius.log - not even when I increase log-level in /etc/freeradius2/radiusd.conf. config file snippets: users: steve Cleartext-Password := "testing" # Service-Type = Framed-User, # Framed-Protocol = PPP, # Framed-IP-Address = 172.16.3.33, # Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.0, # Framed-Routing = Broadcast-Listen, # Framed-Filter-Id = "std.ppp", # Framed-MTU = 1500, # Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobsen-TCP-IP clients.conf: client localhost { # Allowed values are: # dotted quad (1.2.3.4) # hostname (radius.example.com) ipaddr = 192.168.1.2 secret = somesecret LASTLY: ı'm used to posting through nabble so I can ensure thread continuance.
