hi, I am using free Radius 2.0.3. I m configured my AAA through rlm_perl. I need to do the authorization by using the following attributes. Digest-Realm Digest-Method Digest-Uri Digest-Nonce Digest-Nonce Digest-Response Unfortunately i did not get any value from these attributes when i called using $RAD_REQUEST. Please tell me any idea to get these values. Here is the piece of authorization code that i've used. sub authorize { my $nasuser1; my $nasuser; my $naspass; my $dUserName; my $dRealm; my $dMethod; my $dUri; my $dNonce; my $nameindex; my $dResponse; $nasuser = $RAD_REQUEST{'User-Name'}; $naspass = $RAD_REQUEST{'User-Password'}; $dUserName= $RAD_REQUEST{'Digest-User-Name'}; $dRealm= $RAD_REQUEST{'Digest-Realm'}; $dMethod = $RAD_REQUEST{'Digest-Method'}; $dUri= $RAD_REQUEST{'Digest-URI'}; $dNonce=$RAD_REQUEST{'Digest-Nonce'}; $dResponse=$RAD_REQUEST{'Digest-Response'}; my $dPassword; my $ha1; my $ha2; my $a1; my $a2; my $a; my $sqltest; my $sthtest; my $user = "user"; my $password = "password"; my $dbhtest=DBI->connect('dbi:ODBC:MSSQLDSN',$user,$password,{PrintError=>0,RaiseError=>0}); my $dbh = DBI-> connect('dbi:ODBC:MSSQLDSN', $user, $password, {PrintError =>0, RaiseError =>0}); my $sql = qq/select * from testing where UserName = '$nasuser'/; my $sth=$dbh->prepare($sql); if($dbh) { $sth->execute(); if(my $row = $sth->fetchrow_hashref) { #password from database against the username $dPassword=$row->{UserPassword}; $a1=$dUserName.':'.$dRealm.':'.$dPassword; #first part of the hash calculated. $ha1=md5($a1); $a2=$dMethod.':'.$dUri; #second part of the hash calculated. $ha2=md5($a2); #final string to be hashed. $a=$ha1.':'.$dNonce.':'.$ha2; #final response to be checked with the digest-response $a=md5($a); if($a eq $dResponse) { $RAD_REPLY{'Reply-Message'} = "Accepting Users"; return RLM_MODULE_OK; } else { $RAD_REPLY{'Reply-Message'} = "Incorrect Password"; return RLM_MODULE_REJECT; } }#End of row fetch else { $RAD_REPLY{'Reply-Message'} = "Incorrect Username"; #$RAD_REPLY{'Reply-Message'} = $nasuser; return RLM_MODULE_REJECT; }#End of else }#end of if database connection else { $RAD_REPLY{'Reply-Message'} = "Cannot connect to database"; } }#End of authorization subsection With Regards Elangbam Johnson
