Hi I've been following this article to setup FreeRADIUS Google Dual Factor Authenticator
http://www.supertechguy.com/help/security/freeradius-google-auth
Hours of testing I still can't get it to work. If my /etc/pam.d/radiusd looks like the following it works well with the following command
radtest test test localhost 18120 testing123
#
# /etc/pam.d/radiusd - PAM configuration for FreeRADIUS
#
# We fall back to the system default in /etc/pam.d/common-*
#
@include common-auth
@include common-account
@include common-password
@include common-session
However if it looks like the following
#
# /etc/pam.d/radiusd - PAM configuration for FreeRADIUS
#
# We fall back to the system default in /etc/pam.d/common-*
#
#@include common-auth
#@include common-account
#@include common-password
#@include common-session
auth requisite pam_google_authenticator.so forward_pass
auth required pam_unix.so use_first_pass
my log file says the following and auth fails.

I'm using Ubuntu latest
Does anyone know what the issue here?
Many Thanks
After so much internet surfing and forum hunting I manage to fix this problem. If anyone else having this issue this might help them :)

The above line actually means a auth fail, even though it doesn't sound like it, also it could mean that .google_authenticator file in the user's home directory isn't accessible.
FreeRadius log file not help you much with this issue, but have a look through /var/log/secure on CentOS and /var/log/auth.log in Ubuntu. This will explain which is the issue.
Issue with my system was my time was out and my random generated number by Google Dual Factor Authenticator application on my iPhone wasn't valid. I had to install NTP and change my servers time to the correct time which fixed the issue!!!!
hope this help someone else :)
