Re: (RADIATOR) Silly question.

Hi, If your main concern is to restart if radius is not replying rather than only *knowing* if its up, you can write a script using radpwtst like below *on* the radiator server and put it to cron. radpwtst is really a useful tool... If you want only to report the downtime or uptime, its a different story... ------------------------ root#cat testradius.sh #!/bin/sh   #see if its up and running if ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep radiusd > /dev/null  then echo donothing > /dev/null  else /etc/init.d/radiator restart fi   #see if its actually replying if /usr/bin/radpwtst -secret yoursecret -noacct -user heartbeat -password heartbeat | grep "No reply" > /dev/null  then /etc/init.d/radiator restart fi exit ------------------------ ----- Original Message ----- From: Sergio Gonzalez To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2002 11:27 PM Subject: (RADIATOR) Silly question. *This message was transferred with a trial version of CommuniGate(tm) Pro* Hi there. I been testing a network monitoring program. It cans test radius servers, but I neet to "talk" to radiator to be able to see if it's down or not. For example you can test if a certain server has the http service up just "teleneting" it in the 80 port like this: telnet machine.at.some.domain 80 then you write HEAD / HTTP1.0^^ and if the service is up it will tell you something like: HTTP/1.1 200 OK how can I achieve almos the same behavior talking with radiator?. PD: I know (of course) radiator is UDP based, but I still think maybe there is a way to talk to it. Thanks in advance for the help. Sergio Alejandro Gonzalez Director Operativo SkyNet de Colombia.
