Hi,

 

excuse me for asking, but why dont you set up the AppServer in your DMZ ?
you could have ( what I call ) the T - structure

 

>< --- INTERNET --> GATEWAY ( server1 ) <---> LOCAL LAN

                                                               I

                                                               I  DMZ

                                                               I

                                               SERVER2 + APPServer

 

It depends how your users use the gateway and how are they suppose to
connect to the Internet.

Hi All,

 

I am new to this mailing list and am about to ask a probably very silly
question.  Please feel free to direct me to resources that'll help me answer
them.

 

I want to setup the following:

 

Gateway [server1]

       -  nic1 = Internet

       -  nic2 = DMZ [server2]

       -  nic3 = Router w/ Wireless -> App Server [Server3] (FREERADIUS
SERVER HERE) -> Local Lan

 

I read a lot about both Freeradius and LDAP and cannot determine if either
can accomplish my goals.

 

What I want is:

 

1)  1 central place where all user authenication takes place:   SSH, Shell
Access, Samba, OpenVPN, Mumble, Any other app that requires user
administration.

2)  This information stored in a SQL type database so that I can build my
own custom apps to report on user usage, performance ect.

3)  My router has wireless and I have enabled the security features.  I
would still like authenication to take place before a wireless user is
allowed on the network.

 

For example, 

 

Currently, I have this: Router w/ Wireless -> App Server [Server3] + Local
Lan

 

I want this: Router w/ Wireless -> App Server [Server3] -> Local Lan

 

Is Freeradius the best approach for my needs?  Do I need anything else?  

 

-Jesse
