Realm Strip

[Dennis Xu]

This is our setup: we put a FreeRadius version 2.1.10 on Ubuntu in front of the Cisco ACS 5 and we need the FreeRadius to strip the suffix starting from @ and just pass the username to ACS 5 for authentication(with AD). We use PEAP MS-CHAPv2. It did not work. ACS5 still sees the whole username(i.e, dxu at uoguelph.ca) with the suffix.

I added the following to the proxy.conf file:
realm uoguelph.ca {
        type = radius
        authhost = acs5-test2.uoguelph.ca:1812
        accthost = acs5-test2.uoguelph.ca:1813
        secret = testing123
}

I added followings to the radiusd.conf file:
realm suffix {
format = suffix
delimiter = "@"
ignore_default = no
ignore_null = no
}

authorize {
        preprocess
        mschap
        suffix
        eap
        files
}

authenticate {
        Auth-Type MS-CHAP {
                mschap
        }
        eap
}

mschap {
        authtype = MS-CHAP
        use_mppe = yes
        require_encryption = yes
        require_strong = yes
}

Did I miss anything?

Does FreeRadius strip the realm for both inner and outer IDs for peap authentication?

Thank you for your help!
