Hi All, I'm running version 1.18 currently on Ubuntu 2.6.24-19-server; configured to use MYSQL for all auth and accounting requests. I have been asked to move the password verification away from MySQL and use an external username/password DB (managed by another company), for which my only method of access is an http API (given a username and password the API returns either 1 or 0). All attributes will still be held in the current MySQL freeradius DB; and all the users that exist in the API DB will also exist in the same current MySQL DB. The password is passed as PAP through to freeradius currently from the NAS devices, and the API also expects a plaintext password. I was thinking I could use the perl module to achieve this; but am a little lost with where to start (writing the perl script is fine). I guess the point of my post is how to keep all the attributes in MySQL and only offload the password to the API; and where this change would fit in to the radiusd.conf file? Any advice would be gratefully received. Many Thanks, Phil
