Model: EAP670  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

Since the internal Radius server on the latest controller won't work with Android, I have been trying to get Free Radius up and running.

 

Currently, I can authenticate if I use cleartext passwords, but that is not acceptable.  

 

If I use md5, then it will no longer work from my Omada system, however, it will work if I use radtest.  Even if I use radtest remotely.

 

Would ANYONE who has experience with FreeRadius setup be wiling to help me with this?  I have googled a ton, but really haven't found any answers on this.

 

Thanks!

 

PS: I am happy to provide whatever details are needed, but I don't want to put 97 million lines of logs/config files if I don't need to.

I figured out a workable solution.  It appears that I can us ntlm 'out of the box'.  So instead of MD5-Password:= "some md5 hash" I am using NT-Password:= "Some NTLM hash".

 

I am using a website the NTLM hashes (once again, I can't post links, but a Google search will get you any number of sites to generate the hashes for you!).  it appears to be working now.  Although I have to confirm that on-site.

 

My plan is to have my users generate the hashes and send those to me directly.  Then I will create their user accounts in the Freeradius user file.  That way I don't know their password.

Thanks, but neither of those links help.  The first one is regarding the API which I am not using, and the other one requires certificates to be installed on the end user's devices, which I don't want.

 

I am just simply looking to have the users log in with a username and password that is unique to them.  I just want the passwords to be a md5 hash since I don't want to have access to whatever password they use.
