Freeradius, Active Directory and User's Group

[Gary Gatten]

Yup - that's what I was talking about.

You can use variables, but if you need to enumerate a users group memberships - then yea you'll need LDAP.

Gary

Are you talking about the "--require-membership-of" parameter of ntlm_auth?

If yes, I can't use it because is a "randon" situation.

The Alcatel software has a list of all groups that can login and their
appropriate permissions. The freeradius has to see what are the user
groups that the user are member of and reply it to Alcatel software.

John,

I will check out this "reply attribute" and see if it works for me...

Regards
Lincoln

This should work for most "simple" confs, although I can certainly envision situations where LDAP may be required.
