Hi all, I have a quick LDAP question. I'm running freeradius 1.1.3, the latest version available for RHEL 5.4. So, on to the question. If the LDAP server goes away, it looks like radius returns an access-reject. We have, however, redundant ldap and radius servers. Is it possible to have radius stop responding if the local ldap server stops responding rather than having it return a reject? The idea here it so have the access device fail over to the other radius server in the event of a failure instead of rejecting all access requests in case of a single failure.

See the Wiki. There are updated RPMs available.

2.1.8 has a "do not respond" policy that can be used to avoid responding when the LDAP server is down. Alan DeKok.
