My boss wants me to move our icradius installation to a better radius. I believe that freeradius will do what we need, but I cannot easily find specifics on certain things and honestly am pressed against the wall for time on this. If some of these were answered in this list before i ask your indulgence. I have looked through the list archives but find only messages from 2002 and early 2003.
We would install freeradius 1.0.1 with mysql support and want to use our existing icradius database since it is so large. 1. has anyone written a conversion script for this? Initial comparison of the sql.conf file showed me an "op" field difference, but I don't see how it is used or field type/length or what information is contained in it. 2. I noticed in some of the msgs for ver 0.8 that freeradius did not support using NAS as a proxy from the NAS mysql tables. Does it do so now? Flat files are truly not acceptable as we use this information in other programs as well. We are proxy for 26 realms below us in the dialup food chain and need to keep their info in the database. 3. If a proxied realm sends us special reply items such as ascend data filters or custom time limits, does freeradius pass that along to our upstream that queried us initially along with the authentication OK? icradius does not and we now find that we need this function.. These are my main concerns. Manually converting a database is not a good thing:) so hopefully any major differences such as field lengths or new fields etc can be had in some conversion script. -- Chuck "Windows??
