(RADIATOR) How to make Authby File work?

[Joseph Gamboa]

Hello group!   I am currently evaluating radiator and am running it on a Windows NT server.  I am also testing it with an Orinoco AP 500. I am trying out the authby file (flat text file) - radius.cfg file & users file in text below.    My problem is that when I turn on my laptop, my orinoco wireless card's mac address is being logged in automatically.  I have to put in my wireless card's MAC address in the "users" file and give it a password.  Otherwise, I don't get access (access denied) as soon as I turn on my computer.  Am using Windows XP Pro as an OS on my laptop.   Is there a way wherein some sort of a log in window can popup and a user will type in his/her username & password and radiator will authenticate this based on the "users" flat file?   ###  This is my radius.cfg file: Foreground LogStdout LogDir  c:/Program Files/Radiator DbDir  c:/Program Files/Radiator   # This will log at DEBUG level: very verbose # User a lower trace level in production systems, typically use 3 Trace   4   AuthPort 1812   AcctPort 1813   <Client 192.168.1.119>  Secret xxxxxxxx  DupInterval 0 </Client>   #<Client DEFAULT> # Secret mysecret # DupInterval 0 #</Client>   <Realm DEFAULT>  # Look up user details in a flat file  <AuthBy FILE>   # %D is replaced by DbDir above   Filename %D/users  </AuthBy>    # Log accounting to a detail file. %D is replaced by DbDir above  AcctLogFileName %D/detail </Realm>   ###  This is my users file: mikem User-Password=fred  Service-Type = Framed-User,         Framed-Protocol = PPP,         Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255,         Framed-Routing = None,         Framed-MTU = 1500,         Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobson-TCP-IP    joseph User-Password=xxxxxxxx  Service-Type = Framed-User,         Framed-Protocol = PPP,         Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255,         Framed-Routing = None,         Framed-MTU = 1500,         Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobson-TCP-IP   00022d-640762 User-Password=xxxxxxxx  Service-Type = Framed-User,         Framed-Protocol = PPP,         Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255,         Framed-Routing = None,         Framed-MTU = 1500,         Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobson-TCP-IP   Yours truly,   Joseph E.
