Differences between FreeRadius and GNU Radius
Hi, I'm new to RADIUS and I have to configure a rather complex system. Due to the lack of (well made) documentation on the wiki I googled around and I've found a good manual for GNU Radius (the old radiusd). So my question is: how much can I rely on that documentation while writing configuration files for FreeRADIUS? Does exist some piece of documentation which lists the differences between the two systems? I'm especially interested in the 'huntsgroup' file and in the authentication protocols Thank you for interesting, Denis -- \ __ __ _ * _\ \__\ \ \ _\ \/ \_\ \__ \ \ \__ \\ -------------------------> Registered Linux User # 372295 -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 GCS/CM d--- s:+: a-- C+++ UL+++S E--- W+(-) N o+ w--- O?

The server *does* include extensive documentation. See the "doc" directory, and the comments in the configuration files.

You can't. They are *very* different pieces of software. If you think that the GNU RADIUS documentation is better, it's only because it's nicely formatted, and the server does a *lot* less than FreeRADIUS.

Do you have *specific* questions that are not answered by the comments in the "huntgroups" file?
and in the authentication protocols
FreeRADIUS supports all common authentication protocols. Alan DeKok.
