Problems configuring Free Radius
Is there a free radius for Dummies book out there? I know that most of the instruction probably make sense to everyone, but me. I am trying to configure Freeradius 1.1 on a mysql database using fedora 4. I can get to a point where I do the radiusd -X and it starts the radius server. Is there something I need to do with the sql.conf file to tie all of this together? How do I enter my users in mysql? Is there a web interface for the users? Can I put in a start date for a user and a stop date for a user? Is there a web site that I can go to for answers to these questions? I have been to the archives. Thank you and if this all cannot be done, please let me know so I can scrap this project and move onto something different. Dwane Dwane Atkins T&N 210-567-0158 <mailto:atkinsd@uthscsa.edu>
Your MySQL config is in your sql.conf file, in the beginning you enter all info about username, DB etc. also you have to authorize SQL use in radiusd.conf _____ From: freeradius-users-bounces+radiussupport=lrcommunications.net@lists.freeradius .org [mailto:freeradius-users-bounces+radiussupport=lrcommunications.net@lists.fr eeradius.org] On Behalf Of Atkins, Dwane P Sent: Wednesday, March 15, 2006 11:39 AM To: freeradius-users@lists.freeradius.org Subject: Problems configuring Free Radius Is there a free radius for Dummies book out there?

Hi,
Is there a free radius for Dummies book out there? I know that most of the instruction probably make sense to everyone, but me.
OReilly FreeRADIUS book, free online documents and help guides
I am trying to configure Freeradius 1.1 on a mysql database using fedora 4.
make sure you have the mysql RPMs and the freeradius-mysql RPMs installed
Is there something I need to do with the sql.conf file to tie all of this together?
make sure the right calls are in it.
How do I enter my users in mysql?
use mysql or use one of the myriad of front-ends to use MySQL via a web interface - mysqladmin etc. PERL scripts using the DBD system too.
Is there a web interface for the users?
Users? the users should be looking at FreeRADIUS. it authenticates them and accounts them via the NAS. or do you mean system admin users?
Can I put in a start date for a user and a stop date for a user?
yes. in MySQL tables - then use rlm_accounting calls to make sure the dates etc are within those ranges.
Is there a web site that I can go to for answers to these questions? I have been to the archives.
this is all covered in the archives - at least I've seen it here discussed countless times. alan
