Thank you for your help.

After a good nights sleep I re-read that section again.

Since there was no 'shadow' group in CentOS, I needed to run the program as  'root' \
in order for it to read the shadow passwords.

Once I did this, I pulled all the forced authentication as you suggested and it works \
great.

Thanks for the suggestion of where to read.

Joe

Read the getting started how-to's found here:

http://deployingradius.com/

Read the documentation in

/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/default

paying attention to which module reads passwords out of /etc/shadow

Read the debug output, especially lines that begin with "WARNING!"

Do not force Auth-Type in the users file or anywhere else, it's wrong 99% of the \
time. There is no credible documentation which says to do this.

When asking for help follow the instructions by including the full debug output, not \
snippets.

HTH,

John
