rlm_linelog is leeking fd's

Hi, rlm_linelog seems to be massively leeking fd's, i guess moving the file open block after the goto would fix this issue. Regards Stephan Jäger

EAP-AKA support for Freeradius
by Narayanan Preethi-A12713 15 Apr '09

15 Apr '09

Hello, I have been reading that the EAP-AKA support is given by a patch at > I have downloaded patch from http://bugs.freeradius.org/show_bug.cgi?id=386. <http://bugs.freeradius.org/show_bug.cgi?id=386.> But, I cannot accedes this site. The error is: Network Error (tcp_error) A communication error occurred: "Operation timed out" The Web Server may be down, too busy, or experiencing other problems preventing it from responding to requests. You may wish to try again at a later time. I am using version 2.1.4. How can I use the EAP-AKA method in this version? thanks Preethi Preethi Narayanan Motorola Work: 8475233906 Cell: 8473348012 Text: 8473348012(a)txt.att.net

RE: Looking to pay for customization

Thank you all for your comments. What I don't understand is that it seems like it was very easy to do in a previous version: http://lists.cistron.nl/pipermail/freeradius-devel/2005-January/007870.html http://lists.cistron.nl/pipermail/freeradius-devel/2005-January/007871.html Can something similar be done in version 2?

I guess this is a question about Free Radius > internal threading, queueing or blocking/non blocking. Lots. I would suggest *proxying* the requests to another RADIUS server that you write yourself. It can queue up the requests, and then respond in one big batch. > Does the Free Radius/Module architecture allow large numbers of outstanding > Access Requests, and if so, are they queued, or do they exist in 100's of > independent blocking threads, or is there some other mechanism ? If you block in a module, then it *will* use many threads. If you proxy the requests, it won't. I wouldn't recommend doing this, to be honest. It's going to be expensive, fragile, and completely non-standard. I would suggest instead fixing the back end system. Alan DeKok.

Module for Access Request - wait for some things - Accept/Reject
by John Bourke 13 Apr '09

13 Apr '09

Folks, I need to implement a extension which makes Access Request decisions in batch. I need to queue up a bunch of requests, analyse them, and decide which are Accepted or Rejected. This is for a resource allocation problem, not an authentication problem. I want to batch 2-3 seconds of requests which could be up to 150 requests, (I need to handle some exceptional peak loads). "Similarly, the module infrastructure is NOT intended to allow servers, applications, timed events, or anything other than handling incoming RADIUS packets." So the best way is to push this problem off to another application via some clean, non blocking, interface. But. How may outstanding Access Requests can I have waiting on the module/external to complete ? I guess this is a question about Free Radius internal threading, queueing or blocking/non blocking. Does the Free Radius/Module architecture allow large numbers of outstanding Access Requests, and if so, are they queued, or do they exist in 100's of independent blocking threads, or is there some other mechanism ? Many thanks John

This allows *existing* timer events to be deleted when a new one is added. The previous code would *add* timer events on top of the existing ones, causing geometric increases in the number of polls per second. Also, re-arranged the detail && listener code so that there's only one location where the timer gets inserted, and only one location where the delays get propogated from the detail to the event handlers Conflicts: src/main/event.c src/modules/frs_detail/frs_detail.c Files changed: src/main/event.c | 90 +++++++++++------------------------ src/modules/frs_detail/frs_detail.c | 68 ++++++++++++++++++-------- 2 files changed, 75 insertions(+), 83 deletions(-) ======================================================================

Add radius server hostname to tickets
by Stephan Jaeger 09 Apr '09

09 Apr '09

Hi, i'd like to add the radius server's hostname to the tickets, do be able to identify over which server it came in later. For that i've added a new internal freeradius attribute "Server-Hostname" and a block with a gethostname() call to xlat.c. I now update the requests with unlang and add an attribute with %{Server-Hostname} as value. Would you accept a patch for this? Or this there a better way to do this? Regards Stephan Jaeger
