Hi,

What is the format used in /opt/radiusd/conf/clients.conf? The old format does not work anymore.

It should be like this:

client my_client {
ipaddr = 1.2.3.4 
secret = testing123
}

Hi Francois.

Thanks for that, i had missed that originally. Though i did do a fresh install without copying pver my client.conf settings. 

So i re-did a new installation and made sure not change anything,but it was till failing for some reason. I saw that there was a new version (v1.3.5-1) released. I gave that one a shot and it worked fine. So can't say what was happaning but it's all good now.

Thanks a lot for the help!
