<p class=MsoNormal><b>I am new to using freeRADIUS.<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><b>I tried to post a similar message on the 26<sup>th</sup>
of October but got no responses – thought maybe I messed it up as my
first posting.<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><b><o:p> </o:p></b></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I can create a flat-file and have get successful access
using radtest. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have a CentOS 5.2 system running freeRADIUS version
1.1.3.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Soon to be upgraded to 5.3.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I need to setup an account on the freeRADIUS server that can
be accessed by another system as a radius server – not the problem.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I then need to have freeRADIUS call a bash shell (or Perl) script
that checks additional credentials before allowing or rejecting the user’s
access.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>This check can take a multiple seconds to complete so I don’t
want the original radius request to timeout (not sure if it will though).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Think of it as taking the time to have someone lookup and
enter a PIN+TOKEN string but after the fact.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><b><u>A very simple example would be:<o:p></o:p></u></b></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I need to have freeradius verify the passed login/password.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> (In this case, the password may not be
needed to verify access as the script would do the actual validation. Not
sure if this is even possible.)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Then have freeradius call the script either on the same or
another server.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Depending upon the outcome determined by the script - either
allow or deny the user access.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>So even if the login/password were correct, the account
could be denied from another source.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>An easy script for testing could be as simple as: <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>
If the minute is EVEN = allow in and say an appropriate message<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>
If the minute is ODD = do not allow access and say an appropriate
message<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have read most of the .conf files but am still confused
about proxy, etc. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is there a HOW-TO that shows a simple script example?<o:p></o:p></p>
