I am presented with a scenario where I need to run freeradius with no authentication (the system connecting to me is not sending credentials, just blindly sends data). Is it possible? When running the debug version of freeradius it does not require authentication for incoming streams but it seems to timeout at random times and shut down and a release version does not accept data without the sender authenticating. Thanks

This is a poorly formulated question, how about at least a couple of details, for instance the version of freeradius you're running, debug output, etc. I have no clue what you mean by debug vs. release version because there is no difference, only a difference in command line args (and whether the process stays in the foreground, etc.) There should be no difference in behavior between running debug mode. Anyway, of course you can disable authentication, just force the Auth-Type to Accept (see raddb/sites-enabled/default). But one wonders why you would want to do this, why use any authentication at all? If this is only one pesky client then figure out how to identify the client uniquely and only force acceptance for exactly that one client. -- John Dennis <jdennis@redhat.com> Looking to carve out IT costs? www.redhat.com/carveoutcosts/
