(RADIATOR) ARGH!!!!! (problem solved with static ip not working)

1999-11-16 Thread Jay West

It took me a long time to isolate the problem I was having with reply
attributes not being passed back to the NAS. Finally after a decent nights
sleep, basic troubleshooting with radpwtst and (eek!) reading the manual,
the problem was found.

I was using the sample common-sql.cfg and sql.cfg in the goodies directory.
It does not define an AuthSelect. Therefore radiator uses a built-in default
authselect which does NOT return check and reply items, just the password.

I know it's documented as above, but wouldn't it make sense for the built-in
default authselect to INCLUDE the check and reply items, not just the
password?? Surely other people have run into this

Thanks to all who helped me along the way!

Sorry guys - meaningless gripe here, but one just out of frustration!
Doesn't it s*** those of you not using MS mail readers how MS mail clients
don't send messages with hard line breaks at 80 characters!!

It would show an attempt with a password with random (probably 8-bit)
characters. Be sure the IP address you have set for the secret in your
Radiator config file matches the IP address the NAS is sending in the
Radius request (which is not necessarily the same as the IP address that
the request was sent from).

Hum - ok - then

1) Is the secret case sensitive?
2) if the secrets were different, my log file shouldn't show any user
authentication attemps though should it? I would think if the secret was
wrong then radiusd wouldn't even look at the incoming request and reply with
bad password...

PS - Mike, so far I'm REALLY impressed by how well designed radiator is, and
how flexible. Kudos!

Mostly oversight. You should find that the standard dictionary will suit you,
and that (at least) is complete.

Yes, radpwtst has 203.63.154.1 hard coded into it. Its not clever enough to
take note of the IP address passed back in the access accept and then use it in
subsequent accounting requests.

Probably you dont have the shared secret set in Radiator to agree with the one
in your NAS.

Hope that helps.

(RADIATOR) Argh!

1999-03-18 Thread Jay West

Several Radiator questions for the folks here from a radiator newbie

The following questions all pertain to radiator 2.13.1 on FreeBSD 3.1 (O/S
was installed with DES, NOT MD5, but the perl MD5 lib is present and
working)...

1) The documentation states all dictionary files must have at least 4
attributes, which are user-name, user-password, encrypted-password, and
acct-delay-time. However, some of these are missing from the stock supplied
dictionary.whatever files. User-Password and Encrypted-Password for example
aren't in the supplied dictionary.livingston. Is this an oversight or
misunderstanding on my part?

2) radiusd starts fine and radpwtst gives correct results when run. However,
when I look at the detail and logfile files, the user is assigned a strange
IP address (206.63something as I recall) when my user file specified
255.255.255.254 should be passed back to the NAS (radpwtst).

3) Even though radpwtst works ok (except for the above), when I move into
production and point my NAS at radiator, all user authentication fails with
"bad password" (even user/passwords that worked with radpwtst)?!

If it helps, my NAS is a cisco 3620. When users dial in they ask the cisco
for authentication, which in turn passes the request off to my radiator
machine. I was using a livingston 2.x radius setup with the same equipment
and all worked fine. Passwords are just cleartext in the users file.

Any suggestions from the crowd?

Thanks in advance!

Jay West
