RE: [Open1x-xsupplicant] xsupplicant 1.0 socket problems

[<mic...@bt...>]

Andrew,

It looks as though I still had a process running from ages ago before I =
configured the cisco router. Although there was nothing in the /var/run =
directory showing.

I have killed the process and it is now trying to authenticate. =
Unfortunately a network outage means that I can't test the radius server =
at present !!

Anyway, thanks for you help, appreciate the quick response, hopefully it =
will work when I can test it.

Cheers
Mike

The relevant code is in xsup_ipc.c - I'm guessing the socket is used for
InterProcess Communication (IPC).

Specifically, xsupplicant is attempting to bind to what I believe is
127.0.0.1 port 26798. From xsup_ipc.c:

  sa.sin_family =3D AF_INET;
  sa.sin_addr.s_addr =3D htonl(INADDR_LOOPBACK);
  sa.sin_port =3D htons(26798);

It might pay to check that nothing else is using that port. What is the
output of "netstat -an | grep 127.0.0.1" prior to running xsupplicant?

Normally, I'd suspect that there were multiple instances of xsupplicant
running, but this shouldn't be possible (it checks /var/run/xsupplicant
and bails out).

Cheers

Andrew
