Hi Thomas,
if you want to test radius, you have to test on the port 18120

radtest dd9999 Abcd1234 localhost:18120 12 testing123

And to debug, you can kill the radius process and launch:
/usr/sbin/radiusd -d /usr/local/pf/raddb/ -X

Regards

I've always had an issue getting the freeradius module to work correctly with packetfence v3.5 with at least 2 iterations of rebuilding packetfence. (once under centos 5, and now centos 6)

I decided to dust off the covers yesterday to do some serious troubleshooting by looking at logs.

1)I read the admin guide section for radius. Followed those steps for local authentication -- nothing fancy with AD auth yet. Lets get the barebones working.

2)I looked for the radius logs under the following spots:

a./var/log/radius/radius.log

b./usr/local/pf/logs/radius.log

Did a tail on both logs just in case, though all the threads online suggest the correct log to look at is under /var/log. Couldn't find any logs that matched my attempts to perform "radtest". Radtest results as follows:

[server]# radtest username password localhost 12 key

[...]

radclient: no response from server for ID 34 socket 3

So.. doesn't look like the radius server is listening. I did what the packetfence website suggested. Radiusd --X and I get the following results:

Failed binding to authentication address * port 1812 as server packetfence: Address already in use

/etc/raddb/radiusd.conf[27]: Error binding to port for 0.0.0.0 port 1812

So...something is occupying this port already. Let's do a netstat to confirm...

[server]# netstat -an | grep 1812

udp 0      0 127.0.0.1:18120             0.0.0.0:*

udp 0      0 10.10.10.254:1812           0.0.0.0:*

Yes.  Something is listening.

If I stop the packetfence service, I am then able to run radiusd --X and I am able to perform a radtest with success.

I want to troubleshoot this and get to the bottom of my issue because I want to use PF for wireless auth with a WLC! But this is a major hurdle...

Any suggestions?
