I am using currently using FreeRADIUS to authenticate customers of hotspot. But I want FR to authenticate only based on username and ignores the password. So if the username exists in radcheck table, it should send Accept, even if the password mismatches. How can I do that? Thanks

For one, be sure that the password in SQL is Cleartext-Password, and not User-Password. Then, decide which users need to be authenticated based only on User-Name. Then, configure that. The PAP module is listed in the "authorize" section, and sets 'Auth-Type = PAP', but ONLY if Auth-Type is not already set. You can force authentication success by setting 'Auth-Type = Accept'. So the solution is simple: authorize { .... if (User-Name == "testing") { # as an example update control { Auth-Type := Accept } } # this should be the last thing in the "authorize" section. pap } Alan DeKok.
