if radiusd -X works then check whether your pid was created successfully when you run radiusd; if some folders leading to it are missing create them. ================================================== Benjamin K.

freeradius for pam 1.3.15
by Rachmel, Nir (Nir) 27 Mar '07

27 Mar '07

Hi all! I am using the Radius-Pam module, on an embbeded ppc (windriver linux) system, and I have a question. I have noticed, that when configuring my box with a DNS server, then once a user attempts login, a call is attempted at the radius server and some kind of query is sent to the DNS server. Looking into the code revealed that there is a call to gethostbyname(), intended to resolve the ip of myself according to my hostname - or at least that is what I could figure out from the available code. Why is it done, and how bad would it be if I changed that call to something simpler that won't demand a connection to the DNS server? Thanks in advance, Nir Rachmel.

Questions about Freeradius counter
by guest01 27 Mar '07

27 Mar '07

Hi guys! I have two minor problems with the radius counter. I am using the radius counter for counting the "sessiontimeout", which works quite good. counter sessiontimeout { filename = ${logdir}/db.sessiontimeout key = User-Name count-attribute = Acct-Session-Time reset = never counter-name = Daily-Session-Time check-name = Session-Timeout cache-size = 5000 } If the user reaches the saved allowed max session time, the connection gets disconnected and the user is not allowed to connect again until the time value has been reseted. Works great ... I also want to achieve the same behavior for another counter, the Acct-Input-Octets, but it doesn't really work. I can define a maximum value for "Input Octets" and if the user exceeds this value, he cannot connect again. Unfortunately, the connection doesn't get disconnected after the user reached his limit, do I have to configure something additional? It works for the Sessiontimeout, why doesn't it work for the Input-Octets? Any ideas? Is it possible? counter maxinput { filename = ${logdir}/db.maxinput key = User-Name count-attribute = Acct-Input-Octets reset = never counter-name = Input-Octets check-name = ChilliSpot-Max-Input-Octets cache-size = 5000 } The second problem is, that I have Acct-Input-Octets AND Acct-Output-Octets in my radius dialog and I want to use ONE counter, which should contain the sum of Acct-Input-Octets+Acct-Output-Octets, I already tried to use count-attribute = (Acct-Input-Octets+Acct-Output-Octets), but it didn't work ... Any suggestions for that problem? Any ideas? I appreciate every kind of help! Thanks guys! best regards Peter Gastinger

Hello, I have a MikroTik router that is passing accounting data to the freeradius database. I look in radacct and every entry is has duplicates with the exact same information. Does anyone know if this is the MikroTik causing this or freeradius? How do I fix this? Thanks, Matt Neumark

bandwidth and volume limit
by Mathieu Lemaitre 26 Mar '07

26 Mar '07

HI all, I'm running freeradius 1.0.2 on a debian stable. For new clients, I need to implement 2 functions: * a bandwidth limit on a per-user basis. I mean, I need to be able to set, for a user, a value for his upstream and downstream bw, which is sent by the radius as a reply attribute. Are they predefined attributes to do this? * a volume limit: I'd like to be able to set a maximum amount of data monthly downloadable for each user. I tried with rlm_slqcounter, changing the sql request to check AcctInputOctet instead of SessionTime, but the problem is that radius always reply an attribute called MaxSessionTime (or sthg like that), containing the remaining data volume for the user... is there as way to change the name of the attribute answered by freeradius?? Many thaks, Mathieu

Problem with compile
by Rob Wright 26 Mar '07

26 Mar '07

Greetings, I'm trying to setup Freeradius 1.1.5 and I'm having a problem during 'make'. I'm using Debian Etch, with Perl 5.8.8. I get the archive opened up and configure with the following: ./configure --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc --prefix=/usr --with-radacctdir=/var/log/radacct --with-raddbdir=/etc/raddb The configure runs fine, no problems. I run 'make' and it errors out with the following output included below my signature. I'm sure I'm missing something, but I've been staring at it all day and can't come up with anything. Suggestions?
