Even tough there are many RADIUS requests in the queue (they have to be) and I allowed 50 connections to the ldap server FR opens justs 1 or 2. Why?
When you're binding as a user, for authentication, you can't re-use the same connection for multiple requests. So you've got to open/close individual connections. If you're just doing DB lookups, and not "LDAP bind as user", then it should open multiple connections.
That wouldn't bother me usually. But my ldap server delays responses when the password was wrong.
Why are you having your LDAP server perform authentication? Why not use LDAP as a database, and have FreeRADIUS do the authentication?
And because FR uses only so few parallel connections also those requests with correct passwords are affected and delayed. That's why I'd really apreciate if FR used more connections. Is there a chance?
Sure, edit the source code. Alan DeKok.
