Oracle OID and FreeRadius
Okay, so we've got the whole ancient version thing sorted out, and we now have things working - sort of. To recap: We've been working on using Freeradius on RHEL5.4 to link a Motorola RFS6000 with Oracle OID. We now have the following situation - and fair warning this is something of an edge-case as far as FreeRadius goes, as the problem appears to be more OID. We can: Use the oracleadmin user to bind to OID and have everything work. This is sub-optimal for more reasons than I care to count, and probably more than I can imagine. We can: Set up an ACL/ACI in OID to allow the purpose-created bind-user to access the userpassword of a specific user. Radius authentication then works for that user. Needless to say, it is impractical to do this for every single user. We cannot: Set up an OID ACL/ACI to allow the purpose created bind-user to access the userpassword of every user. This is where we want to get to. An alternate path would be to convince FreeRadius to obtain the user-supplied password via EAP-GTC *before* connecting to OID to authenticate the user, if that is possible. (None of the doco I have read to date suggests that it is.) Does anyone have any suggestions? Oracle are being questioned on this as well, but are not being particularly helpful yet. -Rob.

That is possible. Have you read the reply I sent to your previous mail? http://www.mail-archive.com/freeradius-users@lists.freeradius.org/msg66872.h... Note that if you go that route it's not enough to simply configure FreeRadius to use EAP-GTC. You must configure all clients to do EAP-GTC as well.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
It works for Lotus Domino's LDAP. It should work as well for any LDAP server that allows bind as a user. -- Fajar
I had forgotten about that - thanks, I'll try giving that a go. -Rob -----Original Message----- From: freeradius-users-bounces+rmasters=bunnings.com.au@lists.freeradius.org [mailto:freeradius-users-bounces+rmasters=bunnings.com.au@lists.freeradi us.org] On Behalf Of Fajar A.
