effort required to create passwd DB nsswitch lookup using AAA server..
by Raj 08 Oct '05

08 Oct '05

Currently, there's LDAP lookup support for passwd DB in nsswitch.conf. I don't think similar service exist for AAA server lookup for passwd DB in nsswitch. How much effort is required to accomplish this.

by Casey Sung 08 Oct '05

Hello FR experts. I need someone to setup and preconfigure a FreeRADIUS server from scratch for me. Overview of what I accomplished: Give registered authenticated users network access in private network setting. User must log in. Web tool for administrator to register new users for above. Setup multi-cast VPN for remote user access to a server Give guest users free wireless internet access for browsing only (simple web registration required) A way to specify bandwidth for each user or group of users. Soneone in NYC preferred If you have deep experience in FreeRADIUS and network security please send CV to csung(a)corporatepark.net with your $$ fee estimate. Thank you.

The way I am testing this is with postauth query. postauth_query = "INSERT into ${authcheck_table} (id, UserName, Attribute, op, value) values('', '%{SQL-User-Name}', 'Calling-Station-Id', '==', '%{Calling-Station-Id}' )" This works great but it adds a new record every time the user successfully authenticates. Not a problem really but there are also users I don't need to lock to a caller id. I tried using postauth_query = "UPDATE in various ways but I just can't get my head around it. If I manually create an entry in radcheck for a user with the attribute "Calling-Station-Id" and a "NULL" value, then the user can't login obviously. Does anybody have any ideas how to have this attribute somehow dynamically created when the user first logs in if they are a member of a group and ultimately not create it if the record already exists? Any ideas or pointers greatly appreciated. Thanks Shane - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html

about pam_radius_auth.so module and creating user accounts on AAA client..
by Raj 07 Oct '05

07 Oct '05

If I have a Radius client setup on a RHEL 4.0 linux with pam_auth_radius module active for telnet/ssh service, do I need to create a linux user (with no passwd) that is same as the Radius user for this authentication to work? This is assuming "sufficient" control flag for pam_radius_auth as the very first entry in the related service files under /etc/pam.d dir. Basically, I don't want to create a user account on AAA client machine but only on AAA server. Is there a way I can accomplish this using pam_auth_radius and nsswitch.conf ? i.e if there's a way to specify AAA server lookup for passwd DB in nsswitch.conf? __________________________________ Yahoo!

best practice for combination freeradius -- active directory?
by ho 07 Oct '05

07 Oct '05

Hi all, i need some more ideas for doing a good, stable and easy to use connection between freeradius and Active Directory. first of all a little bit of our configuration and history: i've set up a freeradius server for authentication/authorization/accounting of dsl-dial-in user on a cisco asa. it works very well: - local (Auth-type = system) authentication on a linux box - authorisation (especially cisco acl's) - mysql-db -- accounting (this is my favourite feature!!!!!) a new requirement was given to make a connection between the asa and our central authentication: Active Directory. AD is a must in our company. first there were many thoughts in my brain, then i decided to use a NIS-Master-Client combination to do this stuff (it was the easiest way for me to implement). -> freeradius-server is the NIS-client, so Auth-Type = system still remains -> the AD-Servers have installed MS SFU (Services for Unix) with a NIS-Master Server. Everything works well ... but the procedure to get the AD-Users into the SFU-NIS-Master-Server seems to be a little bit tricky, particularly the password stuff (it must be changed in the AD at the first time it was brought into SFU although it was synchronized !!??) I think, this is a solution for 1-100 Users, but not for 2000 and this is our aim. a LDAP-Server is not planned in our company. So now my questions: ---------------------------- - has anybody implemented a similar system? - what could be a alternative/better way to make a connection between freeradius and the AD-Servers only for password-authentication? Authorization and Accounting still remains on the linux-box - I've heard from our AD-God's ;-) that kerberos is used in the AD-system and that it could be a way? ---> has anybody tried this? I would be glad for any idea or hints. Thank you.

If not, something went wrong during compile/installation. Check the output again. It may help if you redirect it to a file (like make > make_output.txt). You can also check configure.log.
