I think telling the core/solo developer and author of FreeRADIUS what 'VSA' stands for is unlikely to be quite the 'what' he was hoping you would answer. Your question is 'meaningless', I think it might be a language barrier at work here. If we assume language barrier then the only interpretation left to us is that you do not read documentation? I guess typing into Google 'FreeRADIUS VSA' is just too damn hard when instead you could find (probably using Google), subscribe, post and wait for a response on a mailing list. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=freeradius+vsa *sigh* ...and yes, the very *first* hit is what you want. Once slight annoyance is the broken link on the page to the dictionary manpage: http://freeradius.org/radiusd/man/dictionary.html In future (this is what I tell our helpdesk and users) you must always provide answers to: * what is it that you are trying to do? * how is it that you are going about doing it? * what are you expecting to happen? * what is actually happening? Answering those simple *four* questions as fully as you can (full debug output if necessary) when confronted with a problem in computing will supply us with what we need to know to help you.

Hi Thank you Alexander for clarification and I'm sorry to ask such questions; So I want to install a radius server. The documentation maked me confused to use free radius with Jradius. I want to connect to the radius server (Jradius or freeradius or the two at the same time I don't know) using TinyRadius Library. So I must know the secret key used by the server to use it side the client Also I want to add a VSA role attribute to know the role of the user (Viewer, admin ...) Is there a good documentation helping me how can I proceed?? Thanks in advance 2010/9/30 Alexander Clouter <alex@digriz.org.uk>

I don't know why. They are two independent projects, with different web sites.

That's nice.

No. You must *create* the secret. That's why it's in a configuration file: so you can edit it.
Also I want to add a VSA role attribute to know the role of the user (Viewer, admin ...)

The server comes with a *lot* of documentation. It explains how to add attributes to the files. See the FAQ for examples, the comments in the configuration files, the Wiki, or the "doc" link on the main web page. If your work isn't important enough for you to read the existing documentation, it's not important enough for us to answer your questions. Alan DeKok.
