Additional Restrictions for users

24 Sep 2010

      I currently have my RADIUS servers setup to handle authentication for
my various NAS's to grant users access to network resources.

I would like to use the same servers to handle authentication for SSH
for various routers. This all works, but I'm having a hard time
getting the RADIUS server to only accept requests from users of the
"ssh" group. I obviously don't want john.doe accessing my core
routers.

What is the best way to go about this? I was trying to use unlang to
query my database but can't seem to get the syntax right.

contents of sites-enabled/default:

...authorize {

        preprocess

if (Service-Type == "Login-User")
                if ( %{group_membership_query} == "ssh") {
                        update reply {
                                 ok-to-continue
                                }
                        }
                else {
                         update reply {
                                  Auth-Type := Reject
                 }
                }....

The group_membership_query would reference this:

group_membership_query = "SELECT groupname \
          FROM ${usergroup_table} \
          WHERE username = '%{SQL-User-Name}' \
          ORDER BY priority"

Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated.
