See the other responses if you want to use a DB. If you don't want to use a DB, you can use caching for the passwd file in the unix config in radiusd.conf. If you want to be able to modify the users file and have it reload without restarting/hupp'ing radiusd, look at the fastusers config in experimental.conf. At the moment, I'm using both of these and haven't had any problems related to them. I can send relevant config settings if necessary, but the docs and list archives should contain enough info to get started.

Re: new users recognized without restarting radiusd
FreeRADIUS can be made to re-load the users file. I *think* you send it the HUP signal. I *know* it can be done with the command: service radiusd reload So, if you can somehow arrange for FreeRADIUS to be given the reload command whenever the users file changes, they you're golden. - Original Message - From: "Merlin Kauffman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, July 28, 2003 7:55 AM Subject: new users recognized without restarting radiusd > Is there any way a user file can be edited and new users can be accepted as valid logins without having to restart radiusd? > > Thanks, > Merlin Kauffman > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > - > List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

Re: new users recognized without restarting radiusd
If you are using a database module then it works. I dont know if there is any way to do it with users, perhaps somebody else would answer that :) Merlin Kauffman wrote: Is there any way a user file can be edited and new users can be accepted as valid logins without having to restart radiusd?

Use an SQL db. it's easy enough, and then you can edit the userdata to your hearts content without need of a restart. -- - Graeme Hinchliffe (BSc) Core Team Member Zen Internet (http://www.zen.co.uk) ICQ 3842605 (link) Direct: 01706 900 212 Sales : 0870 6000 971 Fax : 0870 6000 972 - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

To do that, you need to use an authentication mechanism that doesn't use the users file, such as LDAP or SQL.

new users recognized without restarting radiusd
Is there any way a user file can be edited and new users can be accepted as valid logins without having to restart radiusd? Thanks, Merlin Kauffman [EMAIL PROTECTED] - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
