I am new to this freeradius server, can you give me some idea on how to authenticate freeradius in a postgres database? Also, I need sample configuration

Working, tested, proven sample configuration files are [what this project is in] in desperate need of.

Very few changes need to be made to make FreeRadius work with PostgreSQL using the default configuration files, the main change is selecting the postgres configuration file. The schema and configuration files are included. There isn't information on how to configure PostgreSQL, because they have their own documentation and mailing list. I have provided data sets for testing PostgreSQL in the past and are likely still in the archives. I did extensive testing prior to the release of version 1.0 to ensure that the PostgreSQL driver had equivalent capability to the default MySQL driver. Most problems configuring FreeRadius for use with SQL backends is misconfiguration of the SQL system. Test the SQL connection using the username, password, host and port from the radius server using the values you have configured in the config files using the databases command line utilities to ensure you have properly configured your database. In many cases you will need to edit the host based authentication and configuration files to enable IP connectivity and allow authentication for the SQL backend from the FreeRadius server. All of this is part of the SQL server configuration and is not covered by FreeRadius, because it is covered by the database documentation.

In the mean time, search the mailing list archives.

Just out of curiousity, are you just wanting to control AAA access to the CLI or are you authenticating a dialin port on the AUX?

to test the server. My NAS client is CISCO(2500) with 11.3 IOS.

Help is highly appreciated......

Thank you...
