Hello Everyone: Thank you very much for opening this topic. I have worked on FreeRadius for almost 2 monthes,my purpose is to set up a Radius server which could be used for authentication , authority and accounting for my WLAN.
Right now, I "guess" i have finished the "Authentication Step". I installed the Radius server + MySQL on my FC 14 host,there is a client AP connect to this radius server, the users hold Windows XP laptop could get authentication from radius server via PEAP or EAP-TLS. Here is a first little problem.Right now i could add and delete user in the radcheck table of MySQL,but all the passwords were stored in cleartext?is this the only way to store this password? is it safe enough?is it could be store in the format of ****** like what we set in the wpa-psk mode? Most Seriously, I am confused how to implement the "Authority Step" and "Accounting Step". For the "Authority Step",in my thought, I should create several different GROUPs, each GROUP has different authority,and then divide the users into different GROUPs and get different authority. Is that correct? For the "Accounting Step",i used DaloRadius,but found out there are few help for this web base management system online, and the MANUAL will cost $250.And also the additional mySQL tables makes me more confused. I want to know if there is a example that set up the authority and accounting features of FreeRadius?or just give me a little hints about where to start it step by step.I know there is a really big question. Any hints will be really help,any useful docments and links will be really appreciate. For example, there are 9 tables in the defalut mysql scheme, like radcheck,radacct,nas,radgroup,radgroupreply etc, is there a document to describe these features? I read all the .conf files couple of times ,but still confused about this stuff. -- View this message in context: http://freeradius.1045715.n5.nabble.com/Confused-what-to-do-next-How-to-understand-FreeRadius-tp4844643p4844643.html Sent from the FreeRadius - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
