Yes, though it's not 100%. Specifically the code can challenge clients
for an SoH, and the client will submit it and FreeRadius decode it.
There is not (yet) support for FreeRadius generating and emitting an
SoHR, because I don't have a working example of such, and decoding the
MS-SOH spec is REALLY REALLY hard without at least some working data to
compare to the awful spec language!
It's fairly useful though - you can enable it, and SoH-enabled clients
will submit info like:
[peap] Processing SoH request
SoH-Supported = yes
SoH-MS-Machine-OS-vendor = Microsoft
SoH-MS-Machine-OS-version = 5
SoH-MS-Machine-OS-release = 1
SoH-MS-Machine-OS-build = 2600
SoH-MS-Machine-SP-version = 3
SoH-MS-Machine-SP-release = 0
SoH-MS-Machine-Processor = x86
SoH-MS-Machine-Name = "machine.test.ic.ac.uk"
SoH-MS-Correlation-Id = 0x...
SoH-MS-Machine-Role = client
SoH-MS-Windows-Health-Status = "firewall error down"
SoH-MS-Windows-Health-Status = "antivirus error down"
SoH-MS-Windows-Health-Status = "auto-updates warn service-down"
SoH-MS-Windows-Health-Status = "security-updates ok all-installed"
FreeRADIUS-Proxied-To = 127.0.0.1
User-Name = "host/machine.test.ic.ac.uk"
This can be punted to a virtual server, and you can assign a vlan or
reject authentication etc.
I've tested it with WinXP SP3, Vista and Win7. There is one compile fix
needed which must have snuck through (attached)
