  If I wanted to set up a test dial in server what would I need?

   Something which does dial-in, I guess.  Try searching the net.


H,

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get Free Radius to work with a
dial in server?.  The articles I have read re: creating a dial in server
suggest using ppp with the /etc/password file.

I have been using Windows 2000 RRAS for dial up and it works okay.  I want
to see if I can start using Linux instead.

  Then why not try that?

  In any case, configuring  installing PPP is outside of the scope of
this list.  I suggest asking on a pppd list.

  FreeRADIUS handles only RADIUS.  You'll need something else for
dial-in and modem control.

  As a start, there's nothing in the web pages or documentation which
mentions controlling modems.  That should be a strong hint that
FreeRADIUS doesn't do that.

Freeradius handles authentication, authorisation and accounting. It doesn't handle the dial in process. For that you'll need a network access server. Try mikrotik (www mikrotik.com)

Free Radius Question

Good day all,

I have been reading a bit about Free Radius but I still have questions.

I need to create a dial in box for a few users.  I need some clarification
on what the software does.

Does Free Radius only handle authentication or does it also manage the dial
in process and control the modem?

If I wanted to set up a test dial in server what would I need?

radzap will not work for SQL users unless they apply the patch I submitted 
to the development list a few days ago AND change the size of session_id in 
radutmp to something larger than the default.

I'd appreciate others trying and commenting on my patch so that we can 
possibly get it included in the main code base.

For details, see:
