CentOS5.5 Freeradius issue

oneirishpollack · 11-04-2010, 10:23 AM

Hi folks,

I am trying to install
Freeradius on my CentOS5.5 box so that I can use it for Wi-Fi authentication. I followed the instructions here:

http://www.enterprisenetworkingplane...entication.htm

In particular, I followd this set of instructions after doing a YUM install:

1. Open a terminal, type "su" for root mode, and run "gedit" to open the text editor. Then open the ca, client, and server cnf files from /etc/raddb/certs. In each conf file, edit the following:
* Change "default_days" in the CA Default section to something longer than one year, so you don't have to create and update the certificate so soon.
* Change the "input_password" and "output_password" in the Req section, so the certificates are protected by something other than the default password.
* Change the six values for the last set of identification fields in the Certificate Authority, Client, and Server sections.
2. Save the files, but do not close the text editor yet.
3. Now you need to update the password in the etc/raddb/eap.conf file by changing the "private_key_password" value in the TLS section.
4. Save the file and close the Text Editor.

In the existing root terminal, type "/usr/sbin/radiusd -X". This will create your self-signed certificates and start the server in debugging mode so you can see what's happening. If everything goes as planned you'll see "Ready to process requests" at the end.

My problem:

I first got this:

Thu Apr 2 14:51:31 2009 : Error: rlm_eap: SSL error error:0200100D:system library:fopen:Permission denied
Error: rlm_eap_tls: Error reading certificate file
Thu Apr 2 14:51:31 2009 : Error: rlm_eap: Failed to initialize type tls
Thu Apr 2 14:51:31 2009 : Error: radiusd.conf[9]: eap: Module instantiation failed.
Thu Apr 2 14:51:31 2009 : Error: radiusd.conf[1719] Unknown module "eap".
Thu Apr 2 14:51:31 2009 : Error: radiusd.conf[1666] Failed to parse authenticate section.

So I changed the directory permissions and now I get this:

rlm_eap: SSL error error:06065064:digital envelope routines:EVP_DecryptFinal_ex:bad decrypt
rlm_eap_tls: Error reading private key file /etc/raddb/certs/server.pem
rlm_eap: Failed to initialize type tls
/etc/raddb/eap.conf[17]: Instantiation failed for module "eap"
/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/inner-tunnel[223]: Failed to find module "eap".
/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/inner-tunnel[176]: Errors parsing authenticate section.

Any ideas?

Below is my output:
