Hi,
I have been watching this from the beginning ;) It got really interesting
now. Does anyone know about OMAPI support in DHCPd? It allows you to change
the config ( for example - update a lease ) at the real time without a need
to restart a server.
I am not a professional programmer, but would it be hard to implement
something like that in freeRadius? Lets say to change the NAS info, or the
IP pools etc...
Regards,
Edvin Seferovic

Huh? why would you permit user www to run radiusd?
You need to send a HUP signal to radiusd. You don't need to run it.

The more pieces you have involved, the less secure something is.
FreeRADIUS is more secure than
FreeRADIUS + SQL, is more secure than
FreeRADIUS + SQL + web admin too, is more secure than
FreeRADIUS + SQL +....

*I* wasn't the one asking for an elegant solution. You were. I was
just pointing out that a solution you called "not very elegant" is
pretty much identical to what a solution you're implementing.

There's no official "todo" list for FreeRADIUS. If you want a
feature, submit a request on bugs.freeradius.org. Even better, submit
a patch, so it's easy to add the feature.
