      I am using pfSense 2.4.4

      I am trying to setup Radius authentication for OpenVPN. Everything seems to be setup properly based on the the fact I see security events for NPS as approved on my Windows Server in the event log. I also grabbed the packet capture and it is also receiving an accept request back but right after it posts a request again. The error I get on the pfsense is the following "Error during RADIUS authentication : No valid RADIUS responses received". I have tested both with the Diagnostics -> Authentication section and an OpenVPN package with no luck.

      Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

        I would make sure you can authenticate from Diag > Auth before attempting to use it for OpenVPN.
