freeradius + ldap help getting started
Hi everyone. My problem is as follows: I have a radius sw running on a windows machine with microsoft sql server for storing the information. I need to replace this machine with a linux server with freeradius and ldap. I was searching for information in the internet to get familiar with ldap and freeradius but still I don't know where to start from. :-( My first step AFAIK is to export the microsoft sql data into csv format and then to create the appropriate ldif creating a small script for this job. My problem is that I don't know how to design the ldif and what kind of attributes shall I set. Also, I've seen that freeradius contains an ldap schema but I don't know how to use it. Also, I 've read any doc about freeradius and still I don't know how to set it in order to authenticate with the ldap. Could anyone make all these things clear to me? Thanx a lot, Stella Please notice that I'm not familiar with ldap ... - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
