linux - Cannot connect with WPA2 (AES) encryption + EAP-TTLS PAP with FreeRADIUS auth


I successfully set up an enterprise Wi-Fi connection with LDAP authentication by way of FreeRADIUS. I used EAP-TTLS PAP because I have hashed passwords in my OpenLDAP directory.


When I use TKIP wireless encryption for that WPA2 access point, everything goes very well and my Android phone clients connect just normally (until now all clients have just been Android phones).


BUT when I use AES, the clients cannot connect any more, and I don't know why. The log seems very good, and I tried and searched a lot with unfortunately no success.


Here is my FreeRADIUS log: http://pastebin.com/gF1tBGkM


You may ask why I want AES. That is because Microsoft Windows does NOT allow the TKIP algorithm for enterprise WPA2 connections (maybe just to annoy us and make the matter harder).


I tried all the open source free third party software to be able to use the unsupported protocols, but they where all very old and they didn't work, and I am trying to do everything natively without any third party software.


Could anybody help me please to find any solution for that (to get my client connects successfully with AES)?



Answer



OK, I was not considering that the problem might be from my DD-WRT itselt, and it was!!


I googled for "TP-LINK AES DD-WRT problem". The posts in this page helped me to solve the problem: http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=762001 one guy said, that when he upgraded his firmware, his problem (as my problem, he couldn't connect when using AES) was solved.

much appreciated.

I have the same problem few days ago when I started to use DD WRT.


I fixed by downloading latest version (05-27-2014-r24160) from here http://dd-wrt.com/site/support/other-downloads?path=others%2Feko%2FBrainSlayer-V24-preSP2%2F



So I upgraded my router firmware, and it worked again like a charm! and my android clients were able to connect just perfectly!


Unfortuanately windows clients not, apparently I am missing something while setting the connection in windows up.

Use Google instead of Bing with Windows 10 search

I want to use Google Chrome and Google search instead of Bing when I search in Windows 10. Google Chrome is launched when I click on web, but it's Bing search. (My default search engine on Google and Edge is http://www.google.com ) I haven't found how to configure that. Someone can help me ? Answer There is no way to change the default in Cortana itself but you can redirect it in Chrome. You said that it opens the results in the Chrome browser but it used Bing search right? There's a Chrome extension now that will redirect Bing to Google, DuckDuckGo, or Yahoo , whichever you prefer. More information on that in the second link.

linux - Using an index to make grep faster?

I find myself grepping the same codebase over and over. While it works great, each command takes about 10 seconds, so I am thinking about ways to make it faster. So can grep use some sort of index? I understand an index probably won't help for complicated regexps, but I use mostly very simple patters. Does an indexer exist for this case? EDIT: I know about ctags and the like, but I would like to do full-text search. Answer what about cscope , does this match your shoes? Allows searching code for: all references to a symbol global definitions functions called by a function functions calling a function text string regular expression pattern a file files including a file

How do I transmit a single hexadecimal value serial data in PuTTY using an Alt code?

I am trying to sent a specific hexadecimal value across a serial COM port using PuTTY. Specifically, I want to send the hex codes 9C, B6, FC, and 8B. I have looked up the Alt codes for these and they are 156, 182, 252, and 139 respectively. However, whenever I input the Alt codes, a preceding hex value of C2 is sent before 9C, B6, and 8B so the values that are sent are C2 9C, C2 B6, and C2 8B. The value for FC is changed to C3 FC. Why are these values being placed before the hex value and why is FC being changed altogether? To me, it seems like there is a problem internally converting the Alt code to hex. Is there a way to directly input hex values without using Alt codes in PuTTY? Answer What you're seeing is just ordinary text character set conversion. As far as PuTTY is concerned, you are typing (and reading) text , not raw binary data, therefore it has to convert the text to bytes in whatever configured character set before sending it over the wire. In other words, when y...
