Re: (RADIATOR) Strange Problem

[Ujwol]

Hi Hugh,     Our minimal configuration file is written below.  It's hard to capture trace report because it happens all of a sudden. Well it occured even while I was writing earlier. During that time, I could see nothing wrong with in the server, except for the radiusd. It was taking almost 70% resources. Well it's obvious, cause lots of clients were trying to authenticate.     Surprising thing is it was checking everthing except encrypted password.   As for the hardware/software details We're running Radiator 2.18.1 in Red Hat 7.0 on Intel PIII 500MHz with Sybase ase 11.0.3. with perl version 5.6.0 and the database is in Win 2000 Intel PIII 500MHz with MS-Sql 7.0.   Regds Ujwol   #radius.cfg Foreground Trace 3 PidFile %L/radiusd.pid AuthPort        1645 AcctPort        1646 LogDir  /var/log/Radiator DbDir   /etc/raddb LogFile         %L/logfile-%d DictionaryFile %D/dictionary SnmpgetProg     /usr/bin/snmpget   <Client pm.mos.com.np>         Secret xxxxxxxx         NasType Livingston </Client>   <AuthBy SQL>         Identifier      auth_ktm         DBSource        dbi:Sybase:radius         DBUsername      rad         DBAuth          ********         AuthSelect      select ktm_UserPwd, ktm_SimConnection, ktm_EndDate, ktm_Time, ktm_HoursLeft from ktm_D ialUp where ktm_UserName="%U" and ktm_Status=1         AuthColumnDef 0, Encrypted-Password, check         AuthColumnDef 1, Simultaneous-Use, check         AuthColumnDef 2, Expiration, check         AuthColumnDef 3, Time, check         AuthColumnDef 4, Session-Timeout, reply         AddToReply      Service-Type = Framed-User, \                         Framed-Protocol = PPP, \                         Framed-MTU = 1500, \                         Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobson-TCP-IP, \                         Idle-Timeout = 900         NoDefault         FailureBackoffTime      10         AcctSQLStatement update ktm_DialUp set ktm_HoursLeft=ktm_HoursLeft-0%{Acct-Session-Time} where ktm_Use rName='%U' </AuthBy>   <Handler>         AuthBy          auth_ktm         AcctLogFileName /var/adm/radacct/detail         SessionDatabase SessSQL </Handler>   <SessionDatabase NULL>         Identifier      SessNULL </SessionDatabase>   <SessionDatabase SQL>         Identifier      SessSQL         DBSource        dbi:Sybase:radius         DBUsername      rad         DBAuth          *****          FailureBackoffTime      60         AddQuery insert into RADONLINE (USERNAME, NASIDENTIFIER, NASPORT, ACCTSESSIONID, TIME_STAMP,         FRAMEDIPADDRESS, CALLERID) values ('%u', '%N', 0%{NAS-Port}, '%{Acct-Session-Id}', %{Timestamp}, '%{Framed-IP-Address}', 0%{Cal ling-Station-Id}) DeleteQuery delete from RADONLINE where NASIDENTIFIER='%N' and NASPORT=0%{NAS-Port} ClearNasQuery delete from RADONLINE where NASIDENTIFIER='%N' CountQuery select NASIDENTIFIER, NASPORT, ACCTSESSIONID, FRAMEDIPADDRESS from RADONLINE where USERNAME='%u' CountNasSessionsQuery select ACCTSESSIONID from RADONLINE where NASIDENTIFIER='%N' </SessionDatabase>   <SNMPAgent>         ROCommunity public </SNMPAgent> ----- Original Message ----- From: Hugh Irvine To: Ujwol Manandhar ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 06, 2001 12:43 PM Subject: Re: (RADIATOR) Strange Problem Hello Ujwol - > > Hi, >   We're having strange problem with the Radiator.

Anyone has any idea about this? This is most curious - it is the second report of a problem like this today. In any case, I will need to see a copy of the configuration file (no secrets) together with a trace 4 debug from Radiator showing the problem. I would also like to know what hardware/software platform you are running and and what versions of Radiator, Perl and what SQL database you are using. BTW - the latest version of Radiator is 2.18.3. thanks Hugh -- Radiator: the most portable, flexible and configurable RADIUS server anywhere.
