Create new accounting attributes
by Juan Diego 16 Nov '20

16 Nov '20

Hello everyone, I am new to working with FreeRADIUS and would appreciate your help. I would need to design new accounting attributes in a local environment, using either radclient or radeapclient as the client. As I have seen in the official documentation at https://networkradius.com/doc/current/concepts/dictionary/purpose.html, it is indicated that it is not necessary to modify the source code to add new attributes. I am confused with this, how would the client/NAS add the new accounting attributes to the radius package? Then, I understand that it is necessary to have a dictionary where the new accounting attributes appear so that the server can decode them. Please, if you know of any guide to implement new accounting attributes or what files need to be modified, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance and regards, John

Automatic Yum upgrade of freeradius overwrite dictionary
by Rob Hughes 13 Nov '20

Hi, We have an auto yum upgrade on CentOS overwrite our /usr/share/freeradius/dictionary file last night. Is there a way to prevent this? Should we put $INCLUDE dictionary.whatever into /etc/raddb/dictionary instead? Regards Rob

If someone breaks into your system, then having them read these certificate files is the LEAST of your worries. Stop worrying about useless things. If you want to know how the server uses these files, read the documentation and then default configuration files. > If we delete all these scripts also it is not possible to create any > certificate and we get complete control of where it gets the > certificates and keys ? Yes, because the scripts aren't available anywhere else on the Internet. Oh, wait... A secure system is *not* created by worrying about random things. A secure system is created by *understanding* things. Right now, you're asking very detailed questions, and not paying attention to the bigger picture. This is entirely the wrong approach. Your questions are irrelevant because they're based on a false understanding of how things work. Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html

Hello, I see the files below are generated under /etc/raddb/certs directory. Can someone explain to me the usage of these files? Our system is very secure and did not want to create certs and keys dynamically. -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 4393 Nov 5 18:47 01.pem -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 4370 Nov 5 18:47 02.pem -rw-r----- 1 root 0 6155 Nov 5 18:42 Makefile -rw-r----- 1 root 0 8714 Nov 5 18:42 README -rwxr-x--- 1 root 0 2706 Nov 5 18:47 bootstrap -rw-r----- 1 root 0 1432 Nov 5 18:42 ca.cnf -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 1256 Nov 5 18:47 ca.der -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 1751 Nov 5 18:47 ca.key -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 1757 Nov 5 18:47 ca.pem -rw-r----- 1 root 0 1103 Nov 5 18:42 client.cnf -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 4370 Nov 5 18:47 client.crt -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 1045 Nov 5 18:47 client.csr -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 1743 Nov 5 18:47 client.key -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 2581 Nov 5 18:47 client.p12 -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 3545 Nov 5 18:47 client.pem -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 424 Nov 5 18:47 dh -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 229 Nov 5 18:47 index.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 21 Nov 5 18:47 index.txt.attr -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 21 Nov 5 18:47 index.txt.attr.old -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 120 Nov 5 18:47 index.txt.old -rw-r----- 1 root 0 1131 Nov 5 18:42 inner-server.cnf -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 166 Nov 5 18:42 passwords.mk -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 3 Nov 5 18:47 serial -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 3 Nov 5 18:47 serial.old -rw-r----- 1 root 0 1125 Nov 5 18:42 server.cnf -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 4393 Nov 5 18:47 server.crt -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 1062 Nov 5 18:47 server.csr -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 1751 Nov 5 18:47 server.key -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 2589 Nov 5 18:47 server.p12 -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 3576 Nov 5 18:47 server.pem -rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 3545 Nov 5 18:47 user(a)example.org.pem -rw-r----- 1 root 0 708 Nov 5 18:42 xpextensions Regards Simon

Status-Server requests are blocked if an Access-Request is waiting for downstream service to respond
by Ignacio Arces 12 Nov '20

12 Nov '20

Hello, I'm running a containerized FreeRADIUS server v3.0.19 with a custom authentication module written in C language that authenticates users through a HTTP API. I also configured the Status server as detailed in https://wiki.freeradius.org/config/Status and I'm using it to monitor my server by sending Server-Status requests using raclient to health check my server. We recently experienced an outage in the auth API and since we didn't have timeouts properly configured in the curl calls in our custom C module, the requests were hanging indefinitely. When this happened, we also noticed that our containerized server was restarted by Docker as the container was set to "Unhealthy" state, so the health checks were failing. Troubleshooting the health checks we found that Status-Server requests were not responding while the auth request was hanging waiting for the auth API to respond. Now that we have a 10s timeout properly configured in our curl requests, we have mitigated the undesired restarts but we still can understand why even a single stuck auth request is impacting Status-Server request.

Hello All, Thanks for your all of answer in advance. I have some trouble about perl module. freeradius rlm_perl module requires libperl5.26 in ubuntu 18.04 but in 20.04 there is per which is version 5.30 so freeradius didn't start. when i install activeperl which has include libperl.so,5.26 I got error like this: /opt/sinecins/bin/freeradius/etc/raddb/mods-enabled/detail[34]: Failed > parsing expanded string: > /opt/sinecins/bin/freeradius/etc/raddb/mods-enabled/detail[34]: > ...reeradius/var/log/radius/radacct/%{%{Packet-Src-IP-Address}:-%{Packet-Src-IPv6-Address}}/det... > /opt/sinecins/bin/freeradius/etc/raddb/mods-enabled/detail[34]: But i remove perl module from mods-enable, freeradius begins. I couldn't understand clearly where is the relationship and error Many thanks, With My Best Regards, -- Onur GÜRSOY R&D Engineer in Embedded Systems Master Student at Gebze Institute Of Technology Department Of Electronic Engineering GSM : 0(545) 764 7653 e-mail: onurgursoygyte(a)gmail.com

linelog permission issue
by lingctam 12 Nov '20

12 Nov '20

Dear all, My client authentications keep failing due to linelog permissions issues: Thu Nov 12 19:22:15 2020 : Auth: (58) Login OK: [xxxxxxxxxxxxxx(a)anon.com] (from client xxxxxxxxxx port 0 via TLS tunnel) Thu Nov 12 19:22:15 2020 : Error: rlm_linelog: Failed to open /radius/log/linelog-20201112: Permission denied Thu Nov 12 19:22:15 2020 : Error: rlm_linelog: Failed to open /radius/log/linelog-20201112: Permission denied Thu Nov 12 19:22:15 2020 : Auth: (59) Rejected in post-auth: [xxxxxxxxxxx(a)anon.com] (from client xxxxxxxxxxxx port 13 cli 0ec84fa38cad) There are no issues writing into authentication, accounting, and reply logs. I have set 660 permissions for the linelog module as well. Could someone please help? Or offer a way to bypass this? Authentications are fine once linelog has been commented out in the virtual server configs... but having the linelog would help immensely in monitoring the authentications coming in the hundreds per minute. Thanks in advance.

radius tls for dynamic-authorization
by murugesh pitchaiah 12 Nov '20

12 Nov '20

Hi I am working on using freeradius as radsec server (radius tls). Able to see auth and acct works good. Is it feasible to do it for dynamic-authorization as well ? In the 'sites-available/tls' file not able to add ' coa' to type along with 'auth+acct'. Also I see the 'coa' file in sites-available; but not sure if feasible to configure it for TLS with listening in port 2083. Please share comments.Thanks. Thanks. murugesh

I'm using EAP/802.1x (hostapd) along with freeradius to authenticate wireless users which worked well, is there a way for me to know which IP address is used by each logged-in user? Thanks,
