Re: Radius client configuration issue
thanks for the link. I want to know if we can give radius server ip address and secret in pam.conf file. I tried to configure radius server with CLI, but it doesn't seems to work. Can you please tell me how to configure radius server in radius client to work. Ivan Kalik wrote: I want to use PAM for user authentication. I am trying to setup radius client but unable to configure it. Radius client's setup is at Solaris and Radius Server (RKS emulator) is at Linux machine. Can any one tell the procedure to configure radius client so that it can communicate with Radius server? Is there any script required for that or all the commands needed to configure are in some config file? Also, how to login with radius client to check the authentication. http://freeradius.org/pam_radius_auth/ Ivan Kalik Kalik Informatika ISP - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

Re: Radius client configuration issue
Hi Ivan, I have gone thorugh the link and check all the files. I also tried to compare with my existing installation: 1) As per the given link, it seems that pam.conf is configured as: login auth sufficient /usr/lib/security/pam_radius_auth.so.1 login auth required /usr/lib/security/pam_unix_auth.so.1 telnet authsufficient /usr/lib/security/pam_radius_auth.so.1 telnet authrequired/usr/lib/security/pam_unix.so.1 which is on Solaris 2.6. In our configuration on Solaris 5.10, pam.conf contains: login auth requisite pam_authtok_get.so.1 login auth required pam_dhkeys.so.1 login auth required pam_unix_cred.so.1 login auth required pam_unix_auth.so.1 login auth required pam_dial_auth.so.1 where libraries are in folder /usr/lib/security 2) pam_radius_auth.conf is set at radius server (/etc/raddb/server), which contains server ip address and secret. 3) Also, client info is set in /etc/raddb/clients.conf on radius server But I could not find where radius server ip is configured in radius client. I am not able to find how radius client knows about radius server. Please let me know if I am missing anything. Regards, Meraj Ivan Kalik wrote: thanks for the link.

2) pam_radius_auth.conf is set at radius server (/etc/raddb/server), which contains server ip address and secret. ... But I could not find where radius server ip is configured in radius client. I am not able to find how radius client knows about radius server. Please let me know if I am missing anything. Yes you have. Just read what you have written.

Re: Radius client configuration issue
Yes that I understand. I think there is some confusion. Let me explain, we have 2 separate machine. On one machine (Linux), radius server is setup and running independantly. on this machine, we have made the changes(/etc/raddb/server/pam_radius_auth.conf ) On another machine, which is client machine (On Solaris), PAM is configured in SSH. Also, on this machine, we have pam.conf (/etc/pam.conf) and sshd_config files where authentication libraries and other properties are set. Now, I have to login through my client machine (radius client), and it has to sent information to linux machine (where radius server's setup is done). *Per the understanding, Radius server will authenticate user when PAM is enabled.* ** But it is not clear, how Radius client (on Solaris machine) knows to communicate with Radius Server (on Linux machine). 1. Do we configure ip address of Radius server (on linux) at Radius client (on Solaris machine) ? 2. Do we give username details on Radius server (on linux) machine? I hope it might help to understand the scenario.

Re: Radius client configuration issue
1. Do we configure ip address of Radius server (on linux) at Radius client (on Solaris machine) ? Yes, on client machine in pam_radius_auth.conf. 2. Do we give username details on Radius server (on linux) machine? Yes, you enter usernames/passwords in users file (sql, ldap, whatever). IMPORTANT: those users have to exist on your Solaris machine for PAM to work. Ivan Kalik Kalik Informatika ISP - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
