Webmin
I saw somewhere in a forum the other day that some admins had been successful in reconfiguring the cistron Webmin module to work with freeradius. Anybody out there know where I can find the procedure? I offered to pay Jamie Cameron to develop it and license as freeware but he said he didn't have the time.

RE: Calling-Station-ID
No, what is it. All of my clients have wireless CPEs. In other words it's not the pc that authenticates it's the wireless device.

PEAP and PAE
In order to use 802.1x my NAS manufacturer says that the server must support PAE. Does freeRADIUS support PEAP and PAE? Gene - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
Calling-Station-ID
OK. I finally got my NAS to talk to freeRADIUS. Since we are a totally wireless ISP and don't want usernames and passwords (except for the email servers) how can we configure freeRADIUS to authenticate on the MAC address of the wireless client only? - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

D-Link DWL-2700AP Enterprise Access Point
I have two questions: 1. I have recently completed a freeradius install and tested it using NTradping. Everything looks good. My access point is a D-Link DWL-2700AP outdoor access point. It supports (among other things) WPA-RADIUS and 802.1x. The AP is configured to use 802.1x on port 1812 for auth and 1813 for acctg. When I do a test with NTradping I can watch the requests come in. When I try to connect to AP I don't see any auth requests on the server. D-Link says the device is fully radius compliant. In the clients.conf I have the NAS configured as a type other since D-Link isn't in the list with the other vendor's. I would like to know at least where I can get started troubleshooting the issue. Is there a Windows software utility that will let me read the info coming out of the NAS to see what it is sending? If more info is needed let me know so that I can forward it to the list. 2. This is possibly a dumb question. I apologize in advance if it is. We want to control upload and download bandwidth with the radius box. In order to do this does the radius server need to physically be connected between the NAS and internet router? Gene - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
FW: Installing freeRadius on RH Linux 9.0
I did post the errors. Below is the message I sent on 10/15/2004. It's a non-issue now, because I found out what the problem was. Two extremely helpful members of the Linux community contacted me off-list and we compared their Linux installations with mine and found I was missing the mysql-devel package. Once installed it went great. I now have not one but two functional freeRADIUS boxes. Just so everyone knows, I am a MS MCSE and this is a major departure from what I've spent the last 20 years using. I'm not just running Linux on the server side. It's on every box in our office. I'm not saying I'm abandoning Windows. This particular solution called for something a little more secure, less prone to virus attacks and a heck of a lot cheaper. My total software cost for this WISP is $3000.00 which is for the billing software and its options. Considering I'm used to a point and click world, I don't think I'm doing too bad.

RE: Installing freeRadius on RH Linux 9.0
Because I wanted to know if someone might have a clue as to why it failed. It must be easier to criticize someone than to offer any helpful suggestions. If I didn't want to learn by doing, I would simply buy NavisRadius which I have used in the past in corporate solutions. You can have a RADIUS box online in half an hour serving clients. I have a real interest in Linux. There's one major advantage Windows has over Linux.

Installing freeRadius on RH Linux 9.0
When I run make on freeRADIUS 1.0.1 I get all kinds of missing attribute warnings. The make program eventually finishes with a list of directories listed as 'leaving'. I followed the install instructions, but now I'm stumped. As you have already guessed I am new to freeRADIUS. My partner and I have started a WISP and want to control users by their MAC address. In addition our billing software (Optigold ISP) can export client account information to radius. I really want to use freeRADIUS rather than pay several thousand dollars for a 'boxed' product. If I have to spend any money I would rather pay an individual to help me make this project a success. Thanks in advance. Gene Rouse Wireless Cyberspace, LLC - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
