server.thread.start not triggered on startup
by Nikolai Kondrashov 29 Oct '14

29 Oct '14

Hi everyone, I see that the v3.0.x code doesn't fire the server.thread.start trigger on startup (in thread_pool_init), but only during runtime (in thread_pool_manage). Is this done to avoid a burst of triggers on startup for installations with large thread number? Something else? Thank you. Nick

reaped processes still timing out in rad_waitpid
by Louis Munro 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

Hello, I have hit upon a case where some ntlm_auth processes would return (and write the NT_KEY to the connecting pipe) but FR still complains that it failed and denies authentication (this is on 2.2.5). This manifests in the logs like the following: Tue Oct 28 11:10:15 2014 : Auth: Login incorrect (mschap: External script says NT_KEY: 4BCE6CA72058BA7EE500D1A68A8771C0): [tstRad9] (from client 155.98.204.47 port 0 cli 02-00-00-00-00-01 via TLS tunnel) Since this is actually the output for a valid and successful authentication, it appears that the exit code is the real issue. That exit code is either that of the process itself or 2 if rad_waitpid times out while waiting for the child. After adding some debugging statements and recompiling I found that there were cases where reap_children would reap a child process but the pid would not be found in thread_pool.waiters. This only happened when there were a significant number of auths per seconds and still not consistently. Some head scratching ensued and a colleague then suggested there may be a race condition between rad_fork (where it calls fr_hash_table_insert) and reap_children (where it calls fr_hash_table_finddata). So I wrote a quick patch which I submit to your consideration. It adds the pid to the hash table if not found. In our (admittedly limited) tests this has fixed the issue. No more ntlm_auth waiting ten seconds before timing out. I don't claim for this patch to be perfect. For one thing it causes an error to be logged by rad_fork (" Failed to store PID, creating what will be a zombie process") when the pid is added to the hash table in reap_children. There may be better ways to do this, perhaps simply with better locking in rad_fork. This is only meant as a fix while the issue is discussed and improved upon.

I thought I'd share the radacct in radacct __% Y_% M has any better solutions? Sorry my bad english, Antonio Nunness

OS and Freeradius
by Service Technique AreA 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

Hello, I have a server with freeradius v1.x I took a test server to test an OS update with a new version of freeradius. The stable version of freeradius is 2.2.5? What OS do you recommend? Ubuntu 14.04 LTS or Debian 7? 32 or 64 bit? Is it more difficult to move from version 1 to version 2.2.5? I use Freeradius to a Hotspot system. I Wi-Fi routers with integrated Chillispot (dd-wrt) and routers are connected to the box of customers Kind regards

EAP-TLS fails with 'TLS Alert read:fatal:bad certificate'
by Tabor Kelly 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

I'm trying to setup an EAP-TLS network with freeradius-server-2.2.5. I am using the example simple configuration with the username bob, password hello, and the sample server/client certificates that were generated in /usr/local/etc/raddb/certs.

EAP-TLS + username/password
by João Alves 27 Oct '14

27 Oct '14

Hello,I currently have a freeradius setup where the client authenticates using username/password. My goal is to authenticate the user using a client certificate (using EAP-TLS), however, I would still like to maintain the username/password authentication. Preferably the flow would be something like this:1.User authenticates to radius_server_1 using EAP_TLS2.radius_server_1 after authenticating the client (and only if authentication is sucessful) forwards a request to radius_server_2 with the client username/password3.radius_server_2 authenticates clientSo only if both radius_server_1 and radius_server_2 authenticate the client is the client granted access.The flow doesn't necessarily need to be like the one above, I am open to suggestions, I'm not really sure what is possible and what isn't and would like to know my options.

Re: Freeradius-Users Digest, Vol 114, Issue 81

Hi, I have been using Debian 7 64 bits with 2.2.5 and 3.x and it is working fine. In my opinion Debian is more stable than Ubuntu. I would also strongly advise to go to 64 bits, unless you have very strong reasons to use 32 bits.
