Adding vendor specific attributes to dictionary
Hi all :) Hope someone can point me in the right direction once again! freeradius v 2.1.3 I am attempting to add vendor specific attributes to my dictionary without success :( I was given the following information to add: Class Number Attribute Value Type VENDORATTR 12345 Vendor-Attribute-A 1 string VENDORATTR 12345 Vendor-Attribute-A 2 string Now since VENDORATTR is not a freeradius dictionary format I assume this comes from a different RADIUS server, which I need to now implement in my freeradius dicitonary. I have had a look at the dictionary man page, and see that one can use ATTRIBUTE for this, but since the Number is the same for both attributes I would assume that I need to define a vendor specific attribute encapsulation so that I can list multiple attributes for this vendor, but this does not seem to be working for me - This is what I have done: File dictionary: $INCLUDE/usr/share/freeradius/dictionary $INCLUDE/etc/raddb/dictionary.myvendor File dictionary.myvendor: - VENDOR MyVendor 12345 BEGIN-VENDOR MyVendor ATTRIBUTE Vendor-Attribute-A 1 string ATTRIBUTE Vendor-Attribute-B 2 string END-VENDOR MyVendor When I attempt to start my freeradius server with this dictionary file all I get is the following message to std out: Errors reading dictionary: dict_init: /etc/raddb/dictionary.myvendor[1]: dict_init: /etc/raddb/dictionary.myvendor[1]: dict_init: /etc/ Thats it - even in debug mode no other message is printed. Any pointers would as always be very much appreciated :) Many thanks and have a great Friday, Patric - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html

As always thank you for your reply Ivan :) I have narrowed the problem down to the number field. The actual number I have been given to use is 32768, and the problem seems to be the fact that the number is 5 digits long. If I make the number 4 digits long my server starts up without complaint. Any suggestions? Many thanks, Patric - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
