Gents, so long as you are using FR 2.1.x then you shouldnt
need to do that - just simply edit experimental.conf to make sure the python stuff is active and then edit radiusd.conf to make sure that experimental.conf is included (you did compile FR with experimental modules enabled?)
then you should be able to call python in the postauth section
I'm running FR 2.1.4. My configure was :
./configure --with-experimental-modules
I deleted my python under modules. I did, in the radiusd.conf file :
$INCLUDE experimental.conf
I can see the following line in the log :
including configuration file /usr/local/etc/raddb/experimental.conf
And I left it has it was, so in it, I have :
python { mod_instantiate = radiusd_test func_instantiate = instantiate
mod_authorize = radiusd_test func_authorize = authorize
mod_accounting = radiusd_test func_accounting = accounting
mod_preproxy = radiusd_test func_preproxy = preproxy
mod_postproxy = radiusd_test func_postproxy = postproxy
mod_postauth = radiusd_test func_postauth = postauth
mod_detach = radiusd_test func_detach = detach }
Now, I restarted the server and I have the following. Note that to make sure I was in the right section, I added the following lines in the "post-auth" section of the "site-enabled/default" file : The echo_NAS_Info is a test I made copying the echo module under the "modules" folder
echo_NAS_Info python
The result : Module: Checking post-auth {...} for more modules to load
Module: Instantiating echo_NAS_Info exec echo_NAS_Info { wait = yes program = "/bin/echo %{User-Name}, %{NAS-IP-Address}, %{NAS-Port} " input_pairs = "request" output_pairs = "reply" shell_escape = yes } /usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/default[422]: Failed to find module "python". /usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/default[380]: Errors parsing post-auth section. }
Now it looks like I have a configuration error and not a python module error. Do I have to add more than I replaced python with example in the default file and I have the same result for "example" I verified my /usr/local/lib/ and I have the : rlm_example* files rlm_python* files Seeing that echo_NAS_Info loads, i suspect there is something else that has to be done in order to activate de experimental modules/config. When you say, simply edit experimental.conf, should I change something in it, or by default it should be ok ? The only thing I did is modifiy the radiusd.conf file to add the include line. The python section of the experimental.conf file is uncommented by default. -- Philippe-Alexandre Lemelin
