System = Linux with kernel 2.4.18
In the radiusd.conf file:
The "Cache" setup does not work if you do not use shadow passwords. If the
"shadow" line is left at the default value: (ie commented out)
To force the module to use the system password functions,
# instead of reading the files, comment out the 'passwd'
# and 'shadow' configuration entries. This is required
# for some systems, like FreeBSD.
#
passwd = /etc/passwd
# shadow = /etc/shadow
Then you will get an error:
Wed Oct 9 17:51:06 2002 : Info: HASH: Reinitializing hash structures
and lists for caching...
Wed Oct 9 17:51:06 2002 : Error: rlm_unix: You MUST specify a shadow
password file!
Wed Oct 9 17:51:06 2002 : Error: HASH: unable to create user hash table.
disable caching and run debugs
Wed Oct 9 17:51:06 2002 : Error: radiusd.conf[462]: unix: Module
instantiation failed.
If you say "no" to the "cache" option:
# For FreeBSD, you do NOT want to enable the cache,
# as it's password lookups are done via a database.
#
# allowed values: {no, yes}
cache = no
It loads up just fine.
Is there something I'm missing or is the the default behavior of this
setup?
Thanks,
