@l2isbad is this issue still open?

It seems that freeRADIUS is expecting an authenticator with all bits set to zero? This can be done as described below:

client = Client(server="localhost", secret=b"adminsecret", dict=Dictionary("/tmp/dictionaries"))
req = client.CreateAuthPacket(code=pyrad.packet.AccessRequest, authenticator=16 * six.b('\x00'))
req["FreeRADIUS-Statistics-Type"] = "Authentication"
reply = client.SendPacket(req)

I have not tested but should work.

In general CreateAuthPacket is the right approach!

Yes this issue is still open. It creates broken Status-Server request without Message-Authenticator.

Here is a status-server request example which works for me:

import pyrad.packet
from pyrad.client import Client
from pyrad.dictionary import Dictionary
import six
import hmac
import hashlib

dicts=Dictionary("/tmp/dictionaries")

srv=Client(server='localhost',secret='adminsecret',dict=dicts)

req=srv.CreateAuthPacket(code=pyrad.packet.StatusServer)

# 1. set the default Message-Authenticator as 16-bytes zero.
req["Message-Authenticator"] = 16*six.b("\x00")

# 2. get the raw packet binary
raw_packet = req.RequestPacket()

# 3. calculate the hmac-md5 with shared secret
digest = hmac.new('adminsecret', raw_packet, hashlib.md5)

# 4. write back the Message-Authenticator
req["Message-Authenticator"] = digest.hexdigest().decode('hex')

reply=srv.SendPacket(req)

This should work with version 2.2 as shown below:

srv = Client(server="127.0.0.1", authport=18121, secret=b"foobar", dict=Dictionary("dictionary"))

req = srv.CreateAuthPacket(code=pyrad.packet.StatusServer)
req["FreeRADIUS-Statistics-Type"] = "All"
req.add_message_authenticator()
reply = srv.SendPacket(req)
