Freeradius Clustering
Hello everyone Sorry if this has been covered, but I have googled without finding. I am looking to replace our current servers and am looking to reconfigure the network. I am wanting to know if Freeradius can be clustered? and if so can someone point me to some documentation on the subject. I am also wanting to know how the calculate the new specs for the new servers. Many thanks in advance. Regards Fred - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html

Re: make errors
I have just discovered that if I just proceed and do a sudo make install it obviously fails. But I then go back and do a make and it has no errors, then I do the sudo make install again and it works. Have I still done something wrong and can I trust the install? Regards Fred Hi everyone Doing a brand new install in Ubuntu Draper 6.06 LAMP server.

Re: session updates
This is a wifi system, so we are using chillispot as a captive portal with hotcakes as a manager. Hence when an unautherized user attempts to use the network there requests are trapped and they have to logon via a web client. Once the user is logged on a small web page is left open so the client can logout. The small web window also shows information about the current session, ie. Time online, data in/out and the like. It is this information I am refering to. I hope this is clear.

session updates
Hi Everyone I have managed to build an RPM from source 1.1.7 to install on FC5, freeradius+mysql Freeradius starts up properly without errors and the user can logon and logout as expected. However, when the screen is presented to the user showing the current session details, nothing is updated as expected, only thye clock cycles over. This is a hotcakes install. I have no idea on what to look for. Any comments would be most helpfull Regards Fred - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
Re: building RPM from source
Thanks for the comments.
I have got a copy of 1.1.7 source but my issue is that I don't know how
to enable mysql in the spec file.
Also if I compile from source to I have to install freeradius-mysql or
is it all in the single build?
Also, do I have to have mysql installed on the build machine to enable
mysql suppport?
Default spec file:
%configure --prefix=%{_prefix} \
--localstatedir=%{_localstatedir} \
--sysconfdir=%{_sysconfdir} \
--mandir=%{_mandir} \
--with-docdir=%{_datadir}/doc/%{name}-%{version} \
--with-system-libtool \
--disable-ltdl-install \
--with-ltdl-lib=/usr/lib \
--with-ltdl-include=/usr/include \
--with-large-files --with-udpfromto --with-edir \
--with-rlm-sql_postgresql-include-dir=/usr/include/pgsql \
--with-rlm-krb5-include-dir=/usr/kerberos/include \
--with-rlm-krb5-lib-dir=/usr/kerberos/lib
I assume I can alter the
--with-rlm-sql_postgresql-include-dir=/usr/include/pgsql \
to read
--with-rlm-sql_mysql-include-dir=/usr/include/mysql \
But /usr/include/mysql doesn't exist on the machine.
I am also wanting to add sqlcounter suppport
assumed line:
--with-rlm-sqlcounter-include-dir=/usr/include/sqlcounter \
But again this doesn't exist on the build machine.
I look forward to your comments.
Regards
Fred

Try to get a more recent source RPM from a repository, and
then tweak the spec file to fit your needs. The Fedora builds will
support MySQL by default. It'd be easier than trying to write
your own spec file from scratch. The current version in Fedora 7
is 1.1.6, and 1.1.7 is available in the development repo. (I am
running 1.1.7 built from the devel source RPM.)

building RPM from source
Hi Everyone I am rather new to this, so I hope I am not asking something obvious. I am attempting to build an RPM from source on my FC5 box. The reason is that I am wanting to use hotcakes (a wifi administration app) and it requires 1.1.4 minimum and the latest stable for FC5 is 1.0.5 What I am actually wanting to achieve is a Freeradius install on my FC5 box that puts everything where I am expecting to find them on my FC5 box. I thought building an RPM from source was the idea, but there may be others I am unaware of. My issue is that I am wanting mysql (on separate server) support built into freeradius, but I can't find any information on how that is done within the spec file. Note: This install of freeradius is on a standalone machine, it will have nothing else but freeradius on it. Any thoughts or comments on where I can find the information I need would be most helpful. This is how I am trying to do it so far: $ cd ~ $ cp -a /usr/src/redhat/ rpmbuild $ echo '%_topdir %(echo $HOME)/rpmbuild' .rpmmacros $ wget ftp://ftp.freeradius.org/pub/radius/freeradius-1.1.7.tar.gz $ cp freeradius-1.1.7.tar.gz ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/ $ tar zxf freeradius-1.1.7.tar.gz freeradius-1.1.7/redhat/freeradius.spec $ cp freeradius-1.1.7/redhat/freeradius.spec ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/ $ cd ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/i386 $ rpm -Uvh freeradius-1.1.7-0.i386.rpm No mods to the spec file (information required).

Re: sql.conf file
Nothing is wrong. If you are installing freeradius from RPM on Fedora and you want to use an SQL backend then you need both freeradius and freeradius-mysql (complete with dependencies).

Is this possible
Hello everyone I am very new to freeradius and security type environments and I am feeling somewhat out of my depth at the moment. My current situation is that I have a chillispot WIFI setup. A diagram of the current network can be seen at http://www.shooter.co.nz/network.pdf The problem I have with this setup is that unscrupulous people are connecting to the unprotected APs without authenticating and playing games between themselves therefore bogging down our network with their traffic. So what I am wanting to do is dispose of the chillispot server and authenticate the users directly from the APs (WAP54G) using WPA- Enterprise. WPA-Enterprise on the WAP54G is radius authentication with a WPA shared key between the AP and the radius server. I have got the APs talking to the radius server, but it seems the radius server is using the credentials from the PC to authenticate the users. Here is what I would like to do. When a user attempts to connect to the AP, the user is presented with a login screen (much like chillispot), the user logs on and they are connected to the AP and can use the network as expected. If a user cannot authenticate the attempt is logged and the connection attempt to the AP is dropped. This way a user cannot just blindly connect to our network and use bandwidth. Is that type of configuration possible? and if so where would I find information on how it is done? Many thanks in advance for you patience and comments.

linux newby attempts freeradius (unsuxesfull)
Rather that tell me what I an doing wrong (apart from attempting this) can someone point me to where I can find out what I need to know. Scenario: Debian sarge installed (no probs or errors) on i386 machine. Attempting to install freeradius-1.0.4.tar.gz will not ./configure without errors. As I don't know what I am ment to be looking for, I can't find what I am doing wrong. Trying to be smart, I went to the debian site and downloaded freeradius_1.0.4-2_i386.deb from http://packages.debian.org/testing/net/freeradius I can't find documentation for this, so don't know what to do with it now I have it. Given I am NOT familiar with linux at all, and have ventured into this reluctently, can someone point me to some really bullet proof documentation that doesn't assume people already have an extensive knowledge of linux before they start. I have been working on thisfor 3 weeks now, searched gallaxies far away for info, god is now refusing to take my calls,and my wife has threatened to lock me in my room so she doesn't have to put up with me. I have also learned some very colorful words. Someone please save me. Fred - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
