hostapd runs, but no control of network

[Tim Boneko]

(Sent this mail a week ago, but got no reply at all. Was it lost or is 
my question to silly? Please let me know...)

I compiled hostapd v. 0.4.4 with all necessary options according to 
README and infos from hostap.epitest.fi. I included support for prism54 
(latest stable package from prism54.org) and internal radius server.
I started it. Output looked fine, including the line "Deauthenticating
all stations". (No error messages in the output btw.)

Still all clients have a working connnection, hostapd doesn?t keep
anybody from connnecting. So i changed the config from internal radius
to a freeradius server i just installed. I configured the  clients.conf
file and seem to have hostapd running with my freeradius server, but
still anybody can connect without password. Hostapd makes my wlan a 
wide-open, inviting door.

Logs of freeradius look good to a freeradius newbie like me:

/var/log/freeradius/radius.log:

Mon Aug 22 15:36:29 2005 : Info: Ready to process requests.
Mon Aug 22 15:36:36 2005 : Info: rlm_radutmp: NAS localhost restarted
(Accounting-On packet seen)

/var/log/freeradius/radacct/detail-20050822:
Mon Aug 22 15:36:36 2005
         Acct-Status-Type = Accounting-On
         Acct-Authentic = RADIUS
         NAS-IP-Address = 127.0.0.1
         Called-Station-Id = "00-04-E2-80-EE-03:thalheim"
         Acct-Terminate-Cause = NAS-Reboot
         Client-IP-Address = 127.0.0.1
         Acct-Unique-Session-Id = "60762dd8d4469af9"
         Timestamp = 1124717796

...thalheim is my domain, before that is the prism54 MAC address...



Can anybody shed some light on me? What am i missing? Does the internal
hostapd radius server really authenticate anyone with any passwd? Or
could i uninstall freeradius again? Would be nice since this becomes a
bit oversized with freeradius.
Below is my hostapd.conf, just in case anybody finds the BIG MISTAKE 
(tm) I tried changing most options which seemed relevant to me, but no 
change at all.

Thx,
