      Hmm, what exactly are you trying to log into there?

      It works as expected in the local auth test?

        Yes, I believe that's what my first bullet states

          Ah, so it does! 😉

          Ok, so you are using this for 802.1x auth to the access point rather than OpenVPN as shown in the article? Did you try using it for OpenVPN?

          Yeah reading through that other thread it sure seems the same. You are running a newer pfSense version. I wonder if the those older EAP types were deprecated.

          Do you see the same failure from any client type?

            Correct; I have no need for OpenVPN at this time.

            True; my concern is that my freeradius setup has seen so many alterations which may have rendered the fix in the reference thread useless. Hence why I was asking how to purge in order to setup from stock (as demonstrated in the original article)...

            Do you see the same failure from any client type?

            I tried various types, various combinations. I'm unclear on what you mean by "client", the terminology is overused so wanna make sure I know you're referring to the freeradius client vs iphone/etc. I haven't tested with tablet, but anticipate same as iphone.

              Sorry I meant Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS etc. The other user reported Windows failed entirely whereas MacOS eventually succeeded. Implying it tried more EAP types and eventually tried one that worked. Also that it started out with the least secure types....

                Only iOS clients to date, using what I understand to be the various insecure EAP types. Which again, I suspect there could be an issue with a legacy configuration change I've made that I'm unaware of that is impacting testing...

                No plans for Win/Mac/Android.

                  It would be a good test though since we know it worked after some tries in MacOS in earlier versions.

                      It also works fine with my Mac Pro, but that's at home so kinda pointless :)
