Hi guys,
I have a freeradius 3.0.16 (ubuntu 18.04.3) running authenticating users against an AD via ldap binds, I call a module (small python program) that calls the ldap binds, etc. So this module's return value indicates to the freeradius if auth was successful or not. From time to time the server starts to return (maybe a month) auth failures. I believe that this module loading for each auth user makes the server's state change or in general leave it in a unconsistent state. The module is loaded from the 'python' module putting the name of the module's filename. This module is on /usr/lib/python2.7/custom_module.py. This configuration was transfered from another (older freeradius version, ubuntu 16.04) to this new freeradius server. I suggested go through the ntlm_auth route but the IT manager decided to go this route (the module using ldap binds) which it works but we have this problem and the original person that used the module also have. I wonder if anybody can iluminate what's happening at the server state level. To fix this I have to restart the freeradius process and everything start to work again so it's not something on the AD side. I suspect an 'in-memory' state or something is the cause. Any ideas?
