Re: (RADIATOR) Warning: prerequisite MD5 0 not found

 Thanks very much for the reply.
 
 I did, indeed, follow the steps 
 
   perl Makefile.PL
   make
   make test
   make install
 
 originally for MD5. However, it appears now that I may have had a permissions 
problem. Although the "make test" succeeded, the unpacked files of MD5 had obscure 
file ownerships left over from the tar archive. So when I redid the steps per your 
suggestion I set all the ownerships to "root" first, and this time Radiator compiled 
fine.
 
 Thanks very much. Sometimes you just need a sanity check.

A word of advice for all:

When installing Perl modules, make sure you do the first five steps:
  gunzip blah.tar.gz
  tar -xf blah.tar
  perl Makefile.PL
  make
  make test

*NOT* as root.  This will keep malicious programmers from sending bum
modules that wipe out half your filesystem, and will also avoid the
permission problems you were having.

Only change to root when you are at the final step: make install.

Hope this helps!

(RADIATOR) logging turned on

1999-11-29 Thread Dave Kitabjian


See: http://www.open.com.au/radiator/install.html

It says:

"Run radiator with perl radiusd -config_file goodies/simple.cfg. This
   runs Radiator with logging turned on (so you can see whats 
happening), and
   authenticates all requests from the file users. You will see 
some messages, followed
   by INFO: Server started. Radiator is now waiting for 
requests to arrive."

However, I get *no* messages at all either to the console or the local 
terminal.

- I'm using the stock "simple.cfg", which has "LogStdout"
- All "make test" tests passed "ok"
- The authentication test succeeds regardless:

web# perl radpwtst -user fred -password fred
sending Access-Request...
OK
sending Accounting-Request Start...
OK
sending Accounting-Request Stop...
OK

- "detail" contains accounting records

But I don't have the logging information described. What do I need to do to 
get the logging information to appear? I've tried various things, such as:

perl radiusd -config_file goodies/simple.cfg -foreground -log_stdout

but I'm just guessing. Thanks in advance for your help!

Dave

(RADIATOR) Microsoft SQL 7 and Linux

1999-11-29 Thread Greg Kornatowsky

Has anyone successfully connected their Radiator running on a Linux box to
Microsoft SQL 7.  If you have would you mind sharing the details.  We are
running SQL 6.5 and have no problems with the Sybase drivers but we are
thinking of upgrading to 7.

6.5-7 breaks the Sybase libraries. Microsoft has recognised this as a bug
(ie lost sales) and issue a patch to make it work again.


SYBASE CT-Library Clients Cannot Connect to SQL Server   



---
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft SQL Server version 7.0 

---

BUG #: 55964 (SQLBUG_70)

SYMPTOMS


SYBASE clients using CT-Library based on Tabular Data Stream (TDS) 5.0
(including Open Client 10.0.4 and 11.1.1) cannot connect to Microsoft SQL
Server
7.0.

These clients may encounter one of the following SYBASE CT-Library errors
reported by SYBASE ISQL.EXE:

   CT-LIBRARY error: ct_connect(): network packet layer: internal net
library
   error: Net-Library operation terminated due to disconnect

   CT-LIBRARY error: ct_connect(): protocol specific layer: internal Client
   Library error: There is a tds state machine error. An illegal tds token
   sequence was received.


The Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 errorlog reports the following error:

   ods Error: 17832, Severity: 18, State: 7
   ods Connection opened but invalid login packet(s) sent. Connection
closed..

RESOLUTION
==

A supported fix that corrects this problem is now available from Microsoft,
but
it has not been fully regression tested and should be applied only to
systems
experiencing this specific problem. If you are not severely affected by this
specific problem, Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next SQL Server
service pack that contains this fix.

To resolve this problem immediately, contact Microsoft Product Support
Services
to obtain the fix. For a complete list of Microsoft Product Support Services
phone numbers and information on support costs, please go to the following
address on the World Wide Web:

   http://www.microsoft.com/support/supportnet/overview/overview.asp

The English version of this fix should have the following file attributes or
later:

   Version  File name   Platform
   -

   7.00.723 s70723i.exe Intel
s70723a.exe Alpha

NOTE: Due to file dependencies, the most recent hotfix or feature that
contains
the above files may also contain additional files.



STATUS
==

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SQL Server version 7.0.

MORE INFORMATION


Microsoft SQL Server 6.5 and 7.0 are designed for backward compatibility to
support TDS 4.2 clients, including TDS 4.2 clients from SYBASE. However,
some of
Microsoft's customers have traditionally been able to connect their SYBASE
TDS
5.0 clients and perform basic queries against a Microsoft SQL 6.5 server.
This
configuration is not supported by Microsoft, although some customers have
been
using it.

Some changes were made in SQL 7.0 to provide more TDS protocol checks that
prevented these SYBASE TDS 5.0 clients from making the same connection as in
SQL
6.5. Therefore, a change has been introduced in SQL 7.0 that allows SYBASE
TDS
5.0 clients to connect. However, this does not mean the configuration is
officially supported by Microsoft. TDS 4.2 is the only level of
compatibility
that is supported for SYBASE TDS based clients. TDS 5.0 is a SYBASE
specification and it is not supported by Microsoft.

NOTE: Microsoft will not include these changes in future versions of
Microsoft
SQL Server. These changes will remain during the lifetime of the 7.0
product,
including service packs. Limited testing has been performed by Microsoft
regarding the functionality of SYBASE TDS 5.0 clients with this change. Only
basic connectivity is ensured.

Anyone requiring this functionality should seek a different solution for
connecting SYBASE clients to Microsoft SQL Server such as using an ODBC
driver
or OLE-DB provider.

(RADIATOR) Getting logon failures

1999-11-29 Thread Ray Carpenter

Hi all,

Is there a way to capture logon failures in Radiator?  We are using AuthBy
Emerald and have the log going to radlog table.  I have tried setting trace
values but none seem to trap logon failures.  Is this possible?

Thanks
Ray Carpenter

This sounds most peculiar - can you send us a copy of your configuration file

You can use PasswordLogFileName. See section 6.13.7, 6.13.8 and 15.6 in the
Radiator 2.14.1 reference manual. This has also been discussed on the list and
I seem to remember there were some useful comments made - you might check the

SV: (RADIATOR) Startup

1999-11-29 Thread Christopher Andersson

I'm sending a copy of a configuration file that produces this 
"lock up". It doesn't matter, however, which one I use; there's
allways the same result. The logfile (also enclosed) doesn't
give me any clues.
Anyway, here they are.
Thanks
