invalid login attempts user lockout
Hi All, Does anyone know of RadiusServer denying access for a particular user after a configurable number of invalid login attempts. I know this can be done on the client side with pam modules. But i thought since radius users are same across multple nodes connected to radiusserver, it would be an useful option to lockout at radius server level. Please let me know if anyone is aware of this scenario. Regards, Pavan.

You need to track this information yourself. It requires a DB, and some custom code on the server. I suggest using rlm_perl. Alan DeKok.

And what can you say about rlm_caching? -- With best regards, Evgeniy Kozhuhovskiy, Leader of Services team, Minsk State Phony Network, RUE Beltelecom.
Thanks Alan. I saw a reference for considering attribute PASSWORD-RETRY in freeradius to implement user lockout. So could you please let me know if there are any plans to include this in the upcoming releases. Thanks again, Pavan On Tue, Aug 12, 2008 at 8:47 PM, Alan DeKok <aland@deployingradius.com> wrote:
