Hi All, I used to use FreeRADIUS *years* back (iirc pre v1) on Linux and it worked rather well :) Not touched it since, however have just started a new contract and there is a requirement to use a RADIUS server to connect to our LDAP box (Red Hat Dir Server) to in turn authenticate some users/equipment that can't auth directly, but due to the nature of the environment, all datastores and comms have to be secured/encrypted. As the host will be RHEL5, FreeRADIUS would seem the ideal candidate (comes with it, although a rather ancient 1.1.3 version by default, can upgrade if needed), however before I start installing and testing, wondered whether it will satisfy the secure part of the requirements. So... My questions... # Can freeradius talk to the ldap box using TLS/SSL (ldaps) # Can freeradius read hashed credentials from the LDAP store and then actually use them??? # There may be a requirement to use certificates for auth, can the ldap/freeradius module handle certs??? Am sure there will be other issues/questions but until then. TIA Dan -- -- Dan Hawker danhawker@googlemail.com --
