FreeRadius3: MD5-Password encryption
-
Hi,
as I set up a new box for a customer yesterday, I installed the FreeRadius3 package to go with OpenVPN. As I set it up like our other boxes, I tried creating a user with cleartext and md5 password encryption. But checking it with Diagnostics > Authentication, only the user with cleartext password seems to work. I checked an older box of mine which is set up exactly the same (as far as the obvious things like NAS, Interfaces, EAP settings etc.) and there both kind of users work flawlessly.
So does anyone has an idea as to why the freshly installed box won't work with md5-crypted passes? Error Log shows:
Nov 26 09:13:39 radiusd 77042 (3) Login incorrect (Failed retrieving values required to evaluate condition): [jegr/<via Auth-Type = mschap>] (from client localhost port 0)If I change it to cleartext-password, everything is fine (or check the other testuser with cleartext password). Our other box(es) can test both users with either password setting just fine. Don't understand the difference...

I'm not aware of any problems like that.
Is there maybe some whitespace around the password that got ignored for cleartext but included in the MD5 hash?

Nope, double checked that. The internal auth test works with cleartext password, MD5 gets rejected with above error. Don't understand it the least, as my box at home for example is configured exactly the same way and has no problems testing both kinds of users... I'm at a complete loss...
