EAP-MSCHAPv2 and MPPE key
by Stefan Winter 11 Jun '10

11 Jun '10

Hello, we're trying to get IKEv2 under Windows 7 going. It can use among others "EAP-MSCHAPv2"; notably with EAP wrapper but without TLS. While auth succeeds, FreeRADIUS doesn't send MPPE keys back, and Win 7 then rejects the session. I noticed that rlm_mschap can be configured to calculate and send MPPE keys, while rlm_eap/types/mschapv2 does not; the two modules seem to be mostly independent. Is that something that can easily be added? BTW, a check back with a developer "Martin" from strongswan.org yielded: "Then I'd assume you are using FreeRADIUS :-). It does not include the MSK in MSCHAPv2 if used over EAP. IKEv2 however requires the MSK to calculate the AUTH payload. In its current form, you can't use FreeRADIUS for your setup, my apologies. One could extend FreeRADIUS to copy over the MPPE keys, but writing such a patch is not something I can do in a few minutes."

Removing local auth (freeradius server 2.1.9)
by Martin Richard 11 Jun '10

11 Jun '10

Hello, I've tried the doc, the wiki, and the ML archives but I can't find an answer to what must be a simple configuration thing.. I've compiled freeradius server 2.1.9 and only added two simples lines to $confdir/user: mrichard Cleartext-Password := "qwerty" mrichard2 Cleartext-Password := "qwerty" When starting radiusd -X (yes, I've looked at the output) and testing these 2 most simple accounts with radtest, the first one fails while the second one works. The difference being that there's a "mrichard" account on the box in /etc/passwd while "mrichard2" only exists in radiusd's config. Hence the output differences when calling "radtest thelogin qwerty localhost 666 testing123" (cut) : for mrichard: +- entering group PAP {...} [pap] login attempt with password "qwerty" [pap] Using CRYPT encryption. [pap] Passwords don't match ++[pap] returns reject Failed to authenticate the user. Using Post-Auth-Type Reject for mrichard2: +- entering group PAP {...} [pap] login attempt with password "qwerty" [pap] Using clear text password "qwerty" [pap] User authenticated successfully ++[pap] returns ok +- entering group post-auth {...} ++[exec] returns noop Sending Access-Accept of id 79 to 127.0.0.1 port 60023 Of course, the first account works if I use the OS level password associated with it. After a bit of searching I found a reference in the ML archives to $confdir/sites-enabled/default and saw "unix" in there with the description saying it caches the hashes from /etc/passwd and its accompanying shadow. I've commented those lines and restarted the daemon. Now I get this in the PAP output for both users: [pap] WARNING! No "known good" password found for the user. Authentication may fail because of this. ++[pap] returns noop No authenticate method (Auth-Type) configuration found for the request: Rejecting the user Failed to authenticate the user. Using Post-Auth-Type Reject I must be missing something rather obvious.. But how can I totally disable the lookup of OS accounts ? Thanks Martin

FR 2.1.7: Error: Failed binding to proxy address
by John Horne 11 Jun '10

11 Jun '10

Hello, We are running Freeradius 2.1.7 (on CentOS 5 - freeradius2-2.1.7-7.el5), and are seeing many of these messages in our log files: Fri Jun 11 11:44:19 2010 : Error: Failed binding to proxy address * port 1815: Address already in use The server is already running and so would already be bound to the port, so why is it trying to bind to it again? These seem to occur initially in ones or twos, but eventually the server stops responding completely to requests. At that point we have to restart the radiusd process. Is this known about and maybe fixed in 2.1.9? Or is something else going on here? Thanks, John. -- John Horne Tel: +44 (0)1752 587287 University of Plymouth, UK Fax: +44 (0)1752 587001

RE: Looking for an editor for FreeRADIUS documentation

I would be willing to help as well-if its a collaboration. I can't code and this would be a way to give back. The money could be used someplace it's really needed. -----Original Message----- From: Ramm-Ericson, Johannes <Johannes.Ramm-Ericson(a)sonyericsson.com> Sent: Tuesday, May 18, 2010 3:14 AM To: 'freeradius-users(a)lists.freeradius.org' <freeradius-users(a)lists.freeradius.org> Subject: RE: Looking for an editor for FreeRADIUS documentation Hi, I'd definitely be willing to help out with this task.

FR 2.1.9 Frequent SegFault, didn't happen with FR 2.1.8
by James J J Hooper 11 Jun '10

11 Jun '10

Hi Alan, All, Since upgrading to 2.1.9, FR is segfaulting frequently (every 20 minutes with load, every ~8 hours with less load). Attached -X at startup, and the last 100 lines before segfault. If someone can explain how to drive GDB (or any other method to track this down), I'm happy to try it. Thanks, James -- James J J Hooper Network Specialist Information Services University of Bristol http://www.wireless.bristol.ac.uk http://www.jamesjj.net --

VLAN info disappears
by Andras Dosztal 11 Jun '10

11 Jun '10

Dear FR users, I've configured FR2 (2.1.8) to authenticate users from the users file, and I ran into a strange problem. In the first case, I've configured it to direct a user to VLAN 129: user1 Cleartext-Password := "Default1234" Tunnel-type = VLAN, Tunnel-Medium-Type = IEEE-802, Tunnel-Private-Group-ID = "129", Termination-Action = "RADIUS-Request" User authentication works fine, but the user isn't directed to the correct VLAN, the switch port remains at its default VLAN. Debug log: http://pastebin.ca/1880327 In the second case, I've turned off 802.1X on the client, then I've set it's MAC address in the users file (of cource, mab is enabled on my Cisco switch): 000bcd0axxxx Cleartext-Password := "000bcd0axxxx" Tunnel-type = VLAN, Tunnel-Medium-Type = IEEE-802, Tunnel-Private-Group-ID = "129", Termination-Action = "RADIUS-Request" Authentication works, the PC is directed to its VLAN. What did I do wrong? Can you help me solve this issue? Thanks in advance. Regards, Andras

radmin
by Alexandre Chapellon 11 Jun '10

11 Jun '10

Hello, I have to debug some problem from a specific NAS and so I'd like to use the "debug condition' of radmin. conditionnal debug is really a great feature for helping quickly find out problems. Unfortunately it just doens't work and everythings is debuged and not only packet matching the condition. Here what i did: radmin>debug condition '(NAS-IP-Address == "1.2.3.4")' radmin> debug level 4 radmin> show debug level 4 radmin> show debug condition (NAS-IP-Address == "202.3.238.209") Unfortunately, when looking at the log file I seen stuf like this: ++[preprocess] returns ok [acct_unique] Hashing 'NAS-Port = 302458251,Client-IP-Address = 192.168.110.45,NAS-IP-Address = 42.123.21.78,Acct-Session-Id = "0001003F28000B60-4C11A0B6",User-Name = "A4NJkfU@toto"' Does anybody uses this feature of radmin successfully? Is it supposed to be stable? Thx -- Alexandre Chapellon <alexandre.chapellon(a)mana.pf> Mana SAS
