Is there any way to setup freeRADIUS to connect to "my_db" instead of "radius" database? I have setup freeRADIUS successfully to connect to a backend PostgreSQL database. My original TEST setup is done by following the standard instruction bt creating a "radius" database & "radius" role/User. sql.con has the following instructions,which I believe make this connection; database = postgres server = "pg1" login = "radius" password = "radpass" When I start the RADIUS in the DEBUG mode, I see this line; rad...@pg1:/radius and it connects & no error is displayed. No I want to change the database to"my_db" & a Schema "radius". PostgreSQL is both of them created. I changed "sql.conf" to: database = postgres server = "pg1" login = "my_db" password = "radpass" This does not work. - Is there any way to further change the freeRADIUS configuration to have it connect to"my_db" & "radius" Schema? Is it possible that freeRADIUS software is hard coded that it will only connect to a "radius" Database with "radius" Schema? - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

Reading material!
1. Is there any written description of all the tables, columns, etc. What they are? What data goes in them? How & when they are created? 2. PostgreSQL/freeRADIUS: Where are the accounting tables? Where can I read about them? How are they created? - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
freeRADIUS first test with PostgreSQL?
I am ready to test my first freeRADIUS server with PostgreSQK backend. He is my setup: freeRADIUS Server: -CentOS 5.3 -freeRADIUS V# 2.1.6 (RPM install) -PostgreSQL V# 8.3.7 (RPM install) - Client eth0: Connect to the Internet eth1: Connected to the backend server thru a hub Backend Server: -CentOS 5.3 -PostgreSQL V# 8.3.7 (RPM install) - Server eth0: Connects to freeRADIUSserver via a hub. Both servers talk. I have = First I configured the necessary files (without backend SQL) and tested the RADIUS server in debug mode: radtest testid testpw localhost 0 testing123 -and- NTRadPing Test was a SUCCESS!!! = Now I have configured so that freeRADIUS uses the backend for sql data/tables. I have created the radius database & radius role. I have created RADIUS tables from schema.sql text file. = Now I need HELP. I need to add a couple of USER/PW into the PostgreSQL tables to test. How do I do that? Is there a GUI to add UID/PW? Are UID/PW added manually? Where can read about it? (Please donotjust point to the manual. I have read them all. At least mention Chapter #) What else should I know? - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
How to enter users in sql?
I have successfully setup a freeRADIUS server with PostgreSQL backend (separate) server. When I start freeRADIUS in test mode 'radiusd -X', it connects to the sql server and there is no error. I have two general questions: 1. I need to add one or two test UID & PW in the SQL database. Is there a GUI application available to accomplish that or I have to do it manually entering the data? 2. When the freeRADIUS server is live (on-line) how does user authentication data gets added into the database? In MD5, LINUX has an application to add USER Name & Group (created automatically) which both email program (such as Postfix) and freeRADIUS authenticate against. How is it done in PostgreSQL? I have tried to post this question as clearly as I can. Please ask and clarification! Jennifer K. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html

Yes, there are procedures for creating databases, users, assigning users to databases, giving them permissions etc., even reading input from a file (there are actually several options for doing that). Perhaps you should first find out what these things are for: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/manuals/ Ivan Kalik Kalik Informatika ISP Ivan: I have gone through all 2,000+ pages of the manual you mentioned. Somehow I missed answer to my question. Will you be kind enough to let me know the chapter where it discusses creating data using a text file? Thanks. Jennifer - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

Create Database/Tables -PostgreSQL
I am trying to create pgsql database/tables for freeRADIUS. I notice that PostgreSQL has a schema for freeRADUS. Is there any procedure to create the DB/Tables from this schema or I have to type all the lines to create table manually? - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

How to: freeRADIUS with PostgreSQL Backend!
I have setup a working freeRADIUS server & now want to add PostgreSQL as backend for storage of data. I have read the freeRADIUS documentation and researched the internet on this subject. What I am looking for is any kind of Step-by-Step document detailing sequential steps needed to setup a PostgreSQL back end for freeRADIUS. Has someone written such a document? Is there such a writeup available? - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html

freeRADIUS - New Install testing!
Installed freeradius-2.2.1 (RPM). Installation & configuration went well. RADIUS starts with no problem. "radiusd -XC" output shows no errors. Now I want to do some preliminary testing. In the older versions, I used to run the command: radtest localhost and see the output to verify that RADIUS server was up and running. After I did the above install, "radtest" command is not included. How does one test a new freeRADIUS installation? Is "radtest" replaced by another command? Is there any GUI testing tool for RADIUS? - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html

No, the version in RHEL and CentOS is 1.1.3. The following link explains why and also explains how to acquire and build a current FreeRADIUS RPM for RHEL/CentOS (but read the rest of this email, pre-built versions are coming). http://wiki.freeradius.org/Red_Hat_FAQ I read response from John Dennis and looked at the web site URL he provided. I am ready to install FR and I have one more question! In my setup, I plan to (1) Install FR and test it and if everything works, then (2) setup PostgreSQL backend at a SQL server and test it again. I noticed that at the URL listed by John Dennis, there are two files; freradius-2.2.1.6-1.el5.i386.rpm freradius-postgresql-2.2.1.6-1.el5.i386.rpm I am pretty new to FR so please advice; do I need to install both of these RPMs or just the second for my setup to work? - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

Which version?
OK.. I am ready to install freeRADIUS!. I have setup a LINUX server with: CentOS 5.2 mySQL-server-5.0.25-7 I noticed that 2.1.3 is the latest freeRADIUS version. Does it work with the above OS & mySQL versions or I need to fall back to a previous version of freeRADIUS? I am pretty new and this is my first freeRADIUS installation!

Accounting Software
Hello: My first try on freeRADIUS. I am going to setup a test freeRADIUS server with CentOS 5.2 & mySQL for learning about RADIUS server. Questions: 1. Is there a GUI application to setup freeRADIUS? 2. Is there a free accounting package (must interface with mySQL) I can use? Thanks. Sam - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
