Hello the list,


I'm starting with freeradius.
Authentication works fine !

But the informations I get is only the username (le login name in
/etc/passwd).

How do I get the Fullname ? Or others informations (like mail, home
directory, ...)
Is it possible ?
is it a configuration  of the server or a request from the client ?

thanks for your help



Hi Ariel,

Can you give us a bit more information about how you're using
freeradius?  From your description, it looks vaguely like you're using
pam_radius to authenticate logins against a freeradius server - is that it?


Hi,

in fact, the authentication is done with the file /etc/shadow (NIS users
but doesn't matter I think)

my requests are done with a web interface (php => php-radius) to
authenticate users (and this works well).



Hope it's enough ...


You're trying to use radius for something it's not really intended for. You'd be better off querying that information from a real directory service, like LDAP, or NIS, if you want it quicker and nastier.
