Thanks Alan, and A.L.M.

I too thought the same looking  at the "decrypt failure messages".

As I told in my startup-mail on this thread, the procedure ::

                           su -
                           cd /etc/raddb/certs
                           make clean
                           make client.pem

makes TLS-authentication works perfectly fine for Fedora-14-freeradius,
but not for Fedora-17-freeradius (and I am talking of the vanilla
"gnome-way" of connecting, as is evident from the snapshot).

First of all there is no such version as Fedora-XX-freeradius, there is however the version of freeradius which happens to be installed. At different points in time Fedora releases will have had different versions of freeradius available. You can find out which version you have installed via either

rpm -q freeradius

or

yum innfo freeradius

It's a little hard to tell from you're series of steps but I suspect you're not using a client cert signed by the CA you've configured.

Or the issuing signer (the CA) cert has expired. We deliberately set the validity period to a very short value (60 days) on the *temporary* certs which get created during the freeradius server install to force you to pay attention to the fact these are temporary certs created during install to play around with and are not appropriate for deployment (at least not without editing the configuration files to set the values to your organization).

Thus I would check the following:

1) Is the CA cert still valid?

2) Is the CA cert used to sign the client cert the same one in the CA cert bundle the server is using.

You could go back to square one if the above does not help you.

1) Clean all the certs in /etc/raddb/certs by cd'ing to that directory and running "make destroycerts"

2) Then run "make client", that should recreate the *both* the CA cert and the server cert first, then it will create the client cert signed by the new CA.

3) restart the server and and redeploy the client cert.

Do certs need to be generated differently in Fedora-17 freeradius?
