Configure Freeradius Server on a Synology NAS to Authenticate Cisco RV340 Users

[Levin, Vladimir]

Never mind - I figured it out:

if (User-Name == "cisco") {
	update reply {
		Class := "admin"
	}
}
else {
	update reply {
		Class := "users"
	}
}

Thanks again,

Hi Fajar,

After reading your reply I've realized that, since all Synology users belong to the "users" group, I can simply use that value in the Class statement.  And it worked!  Now all that's left to do is to include "admin" group for router administration, but it looks like there's a syntax error in the 2nd line of the code I came up with:

update reply {
	if (&User-Name == "cisco") {
		Class := "admin"
	}
	else {
		Class := "users"
	}
}

Could you tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks a lot,

vl

Does freeradius get the same information from that database?

Have you determined that %{Group} actually contain the correct group?

Looking at this, it seems that %{Group} is expanded to null.

Where did synology define the group? If it's part of unix group, then
reading http://freeradius.1045715.n5.nabble.com/Reply-with-group-attribute-tp2781054p2781071.html
, it does not store group membership in 'Group' attribute. You might
be able to use something like
https://github.com/FreeRADIUS/freeradius-server/blob/v3.0.x/raddb/mods-available/etc_group
, but it might or might not work depending on what's in your
/etc/group.

If your user/group are stored in sql, then it's another different
story. You might be able to get group membership using a custom SQL
query.

In any case, you can see what attributes you can use (for update
reply) in debug mode using debug_all: https://serverfault.com/a/845161
