Configure Linux Mint vpn client to use radius for authentication.
-
Hello,
I setup an IPsec Remote Access Mobile VPN with ike2 following the documents:
Configuring an IPsec Remote Access Mobile VPN using IKEv2 with EAP-MSCHAPv2
IKEv2 with EAP-RADIUSThe setup is successfull because I can connect one of Windows 10 device in vpn; I tried to connect a Linux Mint 18 client without success.
I followed in the first link the "Ubuntu-based Client Setup" guide but have no working connection: I supposed that the problem was the value in the "Authentication" field so I give an:sudo apt-get install strongswan-plugin-eap-radius
but found that in the Network Manager the options doesn't changed from "eap" to for example "eap-radius".
The question is: how to say to Network Manager vpn configuration dialog to use radius for the authentication? Is this the problem?

Finally I have resolved with the installation of various packages:
network-manager-strongswan (I have to download and install the 1.4 version because the stock package, 1.3, has a bug) strongswan-plugin-eap-mschapv2 strongswan-plugin-eap-radius strongswan-starter libcharon-standard-plugins libcharon-extra-plugins libstrongswan-standard-plugins libstrongswan-extra-plugins
Remember to restart the client before try the connection.
