Re: Error about:rlm_eap_md5: No password configured for this user.

[Shawn Adams]

Alan,

thanks for the response.

I think my Radius is using the system /etc/passwd, as this is the default.
This seems not to be an option, since /etc/passwd is not cleartext.

giving the user a specific entry in the users.conf:

Auth-Type := Local, User-Password = "Hello"

does not seem to help.

Perhaps I'll rephrase the question: What would you recommend as the optimal EAP/MD5
method ? an external file ?

thanks

It appears this might be related to the use of encrypted passwords, when MD5 needs cleartext.

Yes.

anyone know how to fix the password to cleartext in the radiusd.conf ?

You don't. You put the clear text password into the database you're
using.
