No idea. Honestly, I rarely look at configurations. There's just too much stuff there. I look at debug logs. And if the configuration has big problems, it's *really* not worth my time to look. That's why I keep saying "start with the default config" >>> How does the config know to use PAP rather than CHAP/MSCHAP? >> Because all of the experience of the developers working for years with >> RADIUS is distilled into the configuration files. > > Is there any documentation on how this works? I would like to know. raddb/radiusd.conf. In short, the RADIUS Access-Request contains all of the information the server needs to determine the authentication method. The only requirement on the local administrator is to somehow tell the server a Cleartext-Password. > I don't mind fighting for a week if it works at the end and I have a better > understanding.

But the default configuration is *really* that simple for basic things like LDAP, SQL, and 802.1x. And version 2.0 is even easier. Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
