RE: freeradius demo
Best practices for configuring freeradius: 1. Read the FAQs and the archives 2. Read and follow the book. It works! then, if you have problems: Best practices for finding resolution to problems: 1. Read debug statements completely. 2. Read the FAQs and the archives 3. Browse your config files. Best regards for your success.

Re: freeradius demo
Hello again! I have read the rfcs and some other articles, but I still have an comprehension problem! Following situation: 1. Company with 1000 users in different systems (unix/ads) 2. Dial-in possibility over some ISDN Routers (they are the radius clients) 3. One radius server in background how does the radius server know about the users? I made some experience (not much at all) with Cisco ACS, and I think that acs is acting as a kind of proxy like this: nas (radclient) acs (radserver) and acs (radclient) w2ksrv (radsrv) ? -- +++ GMX - Mail, Messaging & more http://www.gmx.net +++ Bitte lächeln!

Re: freeradius demo
hi it depends on what you want to demonstrate. do you want to demonstrate radius or do you want to demonstrate FREEradius? in order to demonstrate the radius functionality you will probably need some kind of service which a user tries to get access to. radius is supposed to provide aaa services and usually deals with some service. so, if you try to set up an impressive demonstration you should first think about that, than get yourself a service access point which is radius-enabled and demonstrate the whole, like e.g. most classic use of radius (how it was conceived in the first place) for a dial-up access: user--->nas>radiusserver. if the people know what radius is and want to see what freeradius is, then you should demonstrate the extensibility of freeradius, its vast configuration options, its modular principle and the function in full debug mode, etc. in any case, i don't see what you want to do with a windows machine. the whole is principally independent of the operating system. freeradius runs on the majority of unixes and with a little luck under some unix-environment of win32. ciao artur [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > hi, > > i am a student and have to make an essay about radius. > the problem is that i want to demonstrate how it works, but i dont have any > idea how i should do it?! > > i thought about to use a vm on my laptop (xp) with linux on it and another > vm with w2k server... then i want to use radtest with a user account from the > ads on the w2k server? but how does it work? is this the proxy feature? > > greetings > knut > > [i use freeradius 0.5 on a suse 8.1 machine.] > > -- > +++ GMX - Mail, Messaging & more http://www.gmx.net +++ > Bitte lächeln!

hi, i am a student and have to make an essay about radius. the problem is that i want to demonstrate how it works, but i dont have any idea how i should do it?! i thought about to use a vm on my laptop (xp) with linux on it and another vm with w2k server... then i want to use radtest with a user account from the ads on the w2k server? but how does it work? is this the proxy feature? greetings knut [i use freeradius 0.5 on a suse 8.1 machine.] -- +++ GMX - Mail, Messaging & more http://www.gmx.net +++ Bitte lächeln!
