Hi Alan,
Thanks for the response. My original email was very lengthy, but at the bottom you can see a wireshark capture showing the packet arrival. (My understanding is wireshark is a pretty GUI based on tcpdump) What is strange is I tried to do the test in the reverse direction and it works i.e. 10.10.10.11 = radisusd server <=== 10.10.10.10 = radtest client Does not work 10.10.10.11 = radtest client ===> 10.10.10.10 = radiusd server Works The host 10.10.10.11 is running 32 bit OpenSuse 11.1 while host 10.10.10.10 is running 64bit OpenSuse 11.1 I have fallen back to default install with only the following files [edits users & clients.conf] (to reflect the opposite endpoints) So far the 32 bit machine appears to be silently dead as far as radiusd Date: Sat, 7 Mar 2009 19:29:05 +0000 From: [email protected] Subject: Re: radiusd server does not respond to radtest from another host To: FreeRadius users mailing list <[email protected]> Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Hi, > Next I tried testing radiusd using radtest from a 2nd host (10.10.10.10), which I had added previously added to the clients.conf (Note I can successfully ping the radius server 10.10.10.11 from this 2nd host 10.10.10.10).?But, I get no response from radius acc-request on either the radiusd terminal window or the radtest terminal window. just like another current thread - have a couple of terminal windows opn. in one, run tcpdump -eqnnntl -i eth0 port 1812 (change eth0 if necessary) in the other, run radiusd -X now, run the test. does anything show packets? have you enabled the firewall to allow port 1812 inbound from 10.10.10.10? alan -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Sat, 7 Mar 2009 11:06 am Subject: radiusd server does not respond to radtest from another host Attached is wireshark capture on the radius server (10.10.10.11) showing the packet arrives from the rad test client (10.10.10.10) No.????
