Hello there,

I am doing an upgrade on the radius server, and I've decided to switch
from Clistron Radius Server to FreeRadius. I have set FreeRadius to use
mySQL and I've transformed the users file to the database format. I
believe that I have configured freeradius enough to work fine. (radtest
and radclient works as expected) However I've encountered some issues.

1st) The first time I tried to see if our Lucent NAS worked well with
the freeradius (clients.conf has been properly set, with all the correct
ip's and passwords) and running radiusd on debug mode (-X) I never saw a
single connection from the NASes. It's kinda confusing since if the
password was incorrect I would probably see a message. I believe that it
is a Lucent issue but the weird thing is that it previously worked just
fine with the Cistron Radius (I've not changed anything on the NASes).
Could anyone know if there is anything that should be taken into
consideration regarding the configuration of the nas?

2nd) I've set the dialup admin pretty well and it seems to work (Check
Server and each Test User works as expected) however I don't seem to see
the online users on the nas. I've set as fingering method snmp. I've
tried running snmpfinger manually to see that it didn't work giving out
errors. Mostly this was because of the different version of the snmpwalk
I have installed on the system. (I use net-snmp latest version). I've
edited snmpfinger for snmpwalk to work well, however now when I manually
execute it I never get anything back... I don't want to use radacct for
such purposes and I am most confused on what is going on. (Shouldn't
snmpfinger return something back? Please note that when I do something
like: snmpwalk -c community host -v 1 system I get a response from the
nas)

3rd) The nases are supposed to server both dialup PSTN and ISDN 64k and
128k at the same time. I've included the NAS-Port-Type on the dictionary
and the dialup admin user_edit.attr file, however, while in Cistron the
difference between PSTN, ISDN 64k, ISDN 128K was something like:

PSTN:
NAS-Port-Type = Async
Simultaneus Use = 1

ISDN 64
Simultaneus Use = 1

ISDN 128
Simultaneus Use = 2

I've been searching the documentations and saw something like:
NAS-Port-Type = ISDN. Would such a thing work as well? 


Btw I should mention that the Cistron Radius was not set by me and the
people do not know how or why it was done this way back then. Well it's
pretty much about that. I am sorry about the extended mail

Really looking forward for any help available

Regards
Paris
