Re: (RADIATOR) SNMP Agent
Hello Kenya - You are correct, SNMPAgent is part of the radiusd process, so it is unavailable if radiusd is unavailable. You should consider our Radar product as the tool of choice to monitor any number of Radiator processes on any number of hosts. www.open.com.au/radar regards Hugh On Thu, 11 Jul 2002 10:52, Kenya Noshiro wrote: I am currently thinking of monitoring Radiator active status by NMS sending snmptrap to NMS. I have configured SNMPAgent clause and get MIB OID when I try snmpwalk and snmpget from manager. Could you tell me which MIB OID defines Radiator active status like process up and down? And if I stop Radiator process, how can Radiator still send snmptrap to NMS? It looks as though, SNMP Agent goes down when I stop Radiator itself. Thank you in advance.

Hello Tunde - On Fri, 22 Feb 2002 21:35, Tunde Itayemi wrote: Hi All, Please I have some questions. 1. I haven't been able to configure the SNMP agent section of the radius.cfg file. the default is: SNMP SNMPAgent rocommunity RadiatorCommunity Port162 /SNMPAgent I have a RedHat 7.2 system (server installation). I have taken a look at the snmp configuration file (/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf) but can't make head or tail of what modifications to make. If I start radiator with the default config, it complians of the community entry in the radius.cfg file. Have you installed the SNMP_session module? Section 6.14 in the Radiator 2.19 reference manual (doc/ref.html). 2. Radiator/CHAP/PAP and NASes I work for an ISP and we are trying to migrate away from Windows 2000 server as our authentication patform. For now, I have radiator installed on a RedHat 7.2 system configured to authenticate against a remote Oracle database. My problem is as below. The database contains plaintext user passwords. If my users configure their dialups to use CHAP, would I still be able to authenticate them correctly? Currently, the Windows 2000 server is properly configured - under the security tab, when you select RAS properties, I have selected PAP alone as the authentication method. a. Now, assume the dialup $ VPN connections on my client machines are set up with CHAP/MSCHAP, do I need to make any changes? No - as long as you have have cleartext passwords in your database, PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP are all handled automatically. b. The RAS-Properties-Security-Authentication method-PAP/EAP/CHAP etc setting - does it imply the exchange of password data between Win2K and Radiator OR user and Win2K OR ALL three? I am not sure what you are referring to here. My desired objective is to allow my dialup clients to configure their systems to use CHAP, while I keep my Oracle database with user passwords as plain text. As long as the passwords in the database are plain text, you can use whatever authentication method you like. regards Hugh -- Radiator: the most portable, flexible and configurable RADIUS server anywhere.

Re: Fwd: Re: (RADIATOR) SNMP Agent, Openlink, Oracle and Radiator
Hi All, After a long struggle with Oracle, I can add some more to this thread. I was able to reproduce what seems like the same problem reported here with Oracle 9i on RedHat 7.1. The symptoms during the Oracle installation included a number of reported errrors during the link phase of the installation. Later when building DBD-Oracle-1.12, no errors were reported, but when trying to connect using DBD-Oracle, it reported problems with missing libraries. The fine print in the Oracle release notes says Oracle is actually only certified for SuSE Linux 7.1 with particular versions of kernel, glibc and binutils. However closer investigation shows that it _is_ possible to avoid the install problems on RH 7.1 and get a dynamically linked DBD-Oracle. The cause of the linking problems (on my host at least) is a failure to correctly build one of the libraries at link time. The solution is discussed at: http://dbforums.com/archive/49/2001/11/1/193916 I have confirmed that after this you can build a dynalically linked DBD-Oracle that loads and works. Hope that helps. Cheers. -- Forwarded Message -- Subject: Re: (RADIATOR) SNMP Agent, Openlink, Oracle and Radiator Date: Mon, 18 Feb 2002 12:14:24 +0100 From: Tunde Itayemi [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Hugh, The following info is just in case anyone else has trouble with installing DBI/DBD-Oracle on Redhat Linux 7.2 . Note that you must use the static linking option to install DBD-Oracle or else, you won't be able to get radiator to authenticate via the module against an Oracle DB. You will see a reference to the errors that you get (after using the default dynamic linking option in the Readme.help file that comes with the DBD-Oracle-1.12.tar.gz file) and how to do the static linking under the For platforms which require static linking. section. Thanks for the info on the ODBC module. Though as I remember, when I downloaded the ODBC module, it said that it was just for Informix or so - not Oracle?

If that is your case, it might be better if you run Radiator's SNMP agent on a non-standard port so it doesn't interact with other SNMP processes... In fact, I even do this on Unix, since I use SNMP to monitor Radiator as well as other stuff provided by OS agents. I'm also using SNMP to restart Radiator and it works OK. Regards, Andrew.

Re: (RADIATOR) SNMP Agent
Hello Andrew - I suspect there is some SNMP program on your Radiator host that is sending SNMP requests that Radiator is rejecting because the community strings are different. To say any more, I will need to see a copy of the configuration file and a trace 4 debug showing what is going on. You could try using snoop or tcpdump (or your favourite packet sniffer) to see what SNMP requests are flying around. regards Hugh On Tuesday 13 November 2001 10:54, Andrew wrote: Hi All, I am a Radiator newbie and am wondering if somebody can provide me with some insight into the SNMP Agent.

When you set the NasType in a Client clause to Cisco, Radiator will attempt to execute the snmpget program to query the NAS. By default, Radiator will look for the snmpget program in /usr/bin, but this can be altered with the SnmpgetProg global parameter. See Section 6.3.13 in the Radiator 2.14.1 reference manual. Note that you will also have to configure the NAS to respond to SNMP queries. hth Hugh -- Radiator: the most portable, flexible and configurable RADIUS server anywhere.
