Hi, Have downloaded and installed Authen:: Radius module from cpan without any problems, I know get no errors in my log files but it still does not authenticate, I already have a auth_radius.pl script which is run to authenticate which looks like this: #!/usr/bin/perl use Authen::Radius; my $username = shift; my $password = shift; my $r = new Authen::Radius(Host => 'myserver', Secret => 'mysecret'); my $result = $r->check_pwd($username, $password); exit ($result == 1) ? 0 : 1; I thought this should pass all the relevant radius parametres to the module. Do I need to add the radius server and secret anywhere else in the perl module? (never used perl module before).

I recieve an error in my log file of a missing Authen/Radius.pm file. I think this is a radius client perl module, does any one know where I can download this from, or wether there is a better solution, or I am doing somethin wrong, I am new to all this Radius authentication.

as per other recent mailing list - either check your systems package manager for perl-radius packages, use CPAN to install Authen::RADIUS or get the pacakge direct http://search.cpan.org/~manowar/RadiusPerl-0.12/Radius.pm alan - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

Hi,

use Authen::Radius;

my $username = shift; my $password = shift;

my $r = new Authen::Radius(Host => 'myserver', Secret => 'mysecret'); my $result = $r->check_pwd($username, $password);

exit ($result == 1) ? 0 : 1;

I thought this should pass all the relevant radius parametres to the module. Do I need to add the radius server and secret anywhere else in the perl module? (never used perl module before).

what do the logs from the RADIUS server say and show? WHY is it failing? this is only one half of the equation alan
