RE: (RADIATOR) Radiator as a NT Service

[Michael Gatti]

Hello; Well I made some minor adjustments following the reply below (one of the things I did was copy the folder "Radius" from c:\radiator\ to c:\perl\lib & c:\perl\site\lib ->> after I did that executing the command line that's in the register from the prompt "c:\>" worked). The Service starts OK , but now there's another problem. When I run the command line c:\> c:\perl\bin\perl.exe c:\radiator\radiusd -config_file c:\radiator\maxnt.cfg and test Radiator with c:\radiator> perl radpwtst -s localhost -user username -password password - Radiator works perfect. But when I start Radiator as a system service ( NET START RADIATOR ) and do the same test, this is what happens: C:\Radiator>PERL RADPWTST -s localhost -user username -password password sending Access-Request... Rejected sending Accounting-Request Start... OK sending Accounting-Request Stop... OK ##################################### Bellow is my config file: Foreground LogStdout Trace             5 AuthPort         1645 AcctPort         1646 LogDir            C:\radiator\malbanet\log LogFile           %D\%Y%m%d.log DbDir             C:\radiator DictionaryFile  %D\dictionary.nt # You will probably want to change this to suit your site. <Client localhost> Secret  mysecret DupInterval 0 </Client> <Client XXX.YYY.ZZZ.xxx> Secret  mysecret DupInterval 0 </Client> <Client XXX.YYY.ZZZ.xxx> Secret  mysecret DupInterval 0 </Client> <Client XXX.YYY.ZZZ.xxx> Secret  mysecret DupInterval 0 </Client> <Realm DEFAULT> # Limit all users in this realm to max of 1 session MaxSessions     1 <AuthBy NT> Identifier NTSystem # Domain  MYDOMAIN.COM.BR # DomainController HOSTNAME # DefaultReply Service-Type=Framed-User,Framed-Protocol=PPP </AuthBy> # Log all accounting into daily log files in LogDir AcctLogFileName %L\%Y%m%d.act # Accounting log file format -> only the following items are logged # AcctLogFileFormat %{User-Name}, %{Acct-Status-Type}, %{Acct-Session-Time}, %{Timestamp}, </Realm> ##################################### ##################################### Bellow is the log entrance where the error appears, looks like radiator can't find the network path: Tue Jul  6 15:07:20 1999: DEBUG: Handling request with Handler 'Realm=DEFAULT' Tue Jul  6 15:07:20 1999: DEBUG: Handling with NT Tue Jul  6 15:07:24 1999: INFO: Access rejected for mike: NT CheckPassword failed: 53: The network path was not found. ##################################### Any help is thankful....
