Hello MAN -


All of the attributes in the current radius request are passed to the external command on standard input, and the results are returned on standard output. Please refer to section 6.26 in the Radiator manual ("doc/ref.html"). If you want to add any parameters to be passed to the external program you should add them as attributes to the current request before calling the AuthBy EXTERNAL clause.

You should also look at the source code in the file "Radius/AuthEXTERNAL.pm" to see exactly what happens.

regards

Hugh

Hi Hugh,


If you look at godies/external.cfg, you will see he needs something like
this:


Command c:/perl/bin/perl ./goodies/testcommand.pl

DOS does not know how to interpret #!/usr/bin/perl so it cant run
C:\Perl\bin\testcommand.pl without some cluues.

Cheers.

Hello Man Meng Fei -

I suspect that Radiator is not able to run the external command.

What happens when you run the following in a MS-DOS window:

C:\Perl\bin\testcommand.pl

There is probably something wrong with either the path or the contents

of the file.

regards

Hugh

Hi
Currently i am using a sample configuration (external.cfg) and perl
script (testcommand.pl) which can be retrieved from goodies
directory to understand the implementation of <AuthBy EXTERNAL>.
But after i executed it, i can't get the expected test result. I got
No
Reply at Radius client. I hope someone can help me to make this
<AuthBy
EXTERNAL> sample working.

Lastly i attached Radius Configration file which i used for the
testing and Radius Server and Radius Client's output result

----------radius.cfg-----------
# external.cfg
#
# Example Radiator configuration file.
# This very simple file will allow you to get started with #
EXTERNAL authentication. #
# There is an example external program called testcommand.pl
# in the goodies directory, whichthe example below uses. It
# will accept the request if the username is "fred" otherwise reject
# it.
#
# So if you run Radiator with this config file, then do
# radpwtst -noacct -trace -user fred
# you will see something like:
# sending Access-Request...
# OK
# Code:       Access-Accept

# And if you do:
