Greetings, I have some general questions about Radius and Active Directory. I'm confused as to how some of the components of packetfence work together. I have packetfence running and I already had freeradius servers that authenticated from AD. So, to setup PF quickly, I went into radius.pf and added my existing Radius servers. Things worked ok. Portal users had to be AD members of a certain group, to log in.
I tried setting the PF radius server up for AD authentication (which I eventually did), but it seems whatever password I use, the portal lets me through. Appears it's because users file has Accepts everything. I've read on other posts that it is SUPPOSED to accept everything, because it's for mac auth and you're supposed to use an external radius server for user auth??? The administrator's guide seems to imply you CAN do AD authentication using PF's builtin radius server, but once again, that seems to allow EVERYTHING IN. So how's does radius interact with the portal vs. using it for 802.11x? Can't I just have the builtin freeradius configed to authenticate certain users in the portal, and not others, plus have it work with my WPA2-ENTERPRISE? Sorry if this post is confusing, the admin guide just doesn't seem to explain anything.
