RE: Syslog and FreeRADIUS

Jonathan,
 
I'm actually planning to roll out RADIUS on a virtualization platform
too, probably Xen.  Could you share what VM platform you're using?
Thanks!
 
Ted

whoa. thats completely different to what the current server
does,
virtual or not. what details do you want to syslog?


  

For a start I want to syslog the stuff that usually goes into radius.log
- so the messages when the server starts (which are already being
syslogged successfully) and the summary line (Auth: Login OK) printed
after an authentication (which are currently not being sent to syslog).

I also want to syslog the stuff that normally gets filed away under
/var/log/radius/radacct - so details of radius packets for debugging.

The reason for wanting to send everything to a log host on the network
is that the new generation of radius servers we are preparing are all
virtualised and only have a few GB of disk - so no room for logs.

Cheers,
Jonathan

Error downloading

2009-07-01 Thread Ted Behling 
Hi,

In case the admin(s) of the FreeRADIUS download servers is on this list,
I thought I'd point out that I received an error just now when trying to
download 2.1.6.  Following the links at
http://freeradius.org/download.html, the link to:

 
ftp://ftp.freeradius.org/pub/freeradius/freeradius-server-2.1.6.tar.bz2

shows a Not Found error in my browser, as does the UK link to

  ftp://ftp.uk.freeradius.org/pub/radius/freeradius-server-2.1.6.tar.gz

However, the German (DE) link works fine and I was able to download the
tarball.
