Hi, I use a completely custom setup. Not using the "default" server at all. All is working fine, except for a warning. In the authorise section, I have rlm_sql that selects the cleartext password from a database. The query looks like this. authorize_check_query = "SELECT AccountID, Login, 'Cleartext-Password', Password, ':=' \ from Account WHERE Login = '%{SQL-User-Name}'" } This is the rlm_sql query defined. My authorise and authenticate section looks like this. authorize { authorisation_log chap mschap sql } authenticate { Auth-Type PAP { pap } Auth-Type CHAP { chap } Auth-Type MS-CHAP { mschap } } When a PAP request comes in, just after the sql selects the password and somewhere before authenticate, I get a warning. (Unsure if the warning will appear for CHAP/MSCHAP) --------------------------------------------- [sql] expand: SELECT AccountID, Login, 'Cleartext-Password', Password, ':=' from Account WHERE Login = '%{SQL-User-Name}' -> SELECT AccountID, Login, 'Cleartext-Password', Password, ':=' from Account WHERE Login = 'test@domain.co.za' [sql] User found in radcheck table rlm_sql (sql): Released sql socket id: 1 +++[sql] returns ok ++- else else returns ok WARNING: Please update your configuration, and remove 'Auth-Type = Local' WARNING: Use the PAP or CHAP modules instead. User-Password in the request is correct. # Executing section post-auth from file /etc/freeradius/sites-enabled/custom +- entering group post-auth {...} ------------------------------------------------------- Do I need to concern myself with the warning? All is working fine, I was just enquisitive as to why this happens.
