Re: Hotspot snmp problem
Hi everyone, Finally, have it working.. I did not comment out the radutmp in radius.conf for the session database. I had uncommented sql, although lots of good that did.

Re: Hotspot snmp problem
Hi,,, Once again, I apologize for my lack of understanding. I have been trying to read all debug messages and start radiusd with -X however the only files which get populated are ones created in the radacct directory. The detail files appear to be fine with start, alive and stop packets being listed, but radius.log and radwtmp and radutmp are empty. Is it possible, I inadvertently set everything to log to the db only? Sorry for testing your patience... I think once I get up this curve a bit, I should not have to ask these bad questions.

Re: Hotspot snmp problem
Hi again,
I have been doing reading on the Simultaneous-use with the radutmp module
and sql. I was hoping someone could help clarify some confusion I
have. Using the Sql notes I inserted the Simultaneous attribute to the
radgroupcheck table, although I did change the dialup attribute to dynamic
as that is the group my login belongs to. Using the sql.conf I uncommented
the simul_count_query (simul_verify_query was already uncommented).
I still see no output in the radutmp file, even though during loading it says,
Module: Loaded radutmp
radutmp: filename = /usr/local/var/log/radius/radutmp
radutmp: username = %{User-Name}
radutmp: case_sensitive = yes
radutmp: check_with_nas = no
radutmp: perm = 384
radutmp: callerid = yes
Module: Instantiated radutmp (radutmp)
radacct has lots of details,

When I have an account start time and end time in the radacct, does that
not mean simul checking should be working?
Sorry for my lack of understanding on this process, I have read lots of
docs, I think it's just going to take me a little longer to get it. :)
Thank you again for all your help,
Robin

Yes. The server already does this.
As I said, the server maintains a database. The only purpose of
checkrad is to catch corner cases.
I have read past posts about using an sql only method and I
understand this has it's own problems. However, if anyone has any
docs which could help me out it's appreciated.
The server comes with documentation for Simultaneous-Use, which
includes documentation on configuring it via the radutmp module, and
in SQL. Please read the documentation.
Ideally I would like to have checkrad speak to the AP and it's
probably possible except snmpwalk'ing the device does not appear to
provide user login information.
Then there's no use in having checkrad talk to the NAS, is there?

Hotspot snmp problem
Hello, A couple of us at work have been playing with a hotspot controller (Internet Subscriber Server II ISS-4000) using freeradius and mysql for authentication. We are having problems with checkrad (totally to do with the AP not being nice). I'm not sure what is the best way to handle this. I can snmpwalk the device however the output does not appear to have information regarding logins. The manufacturer does not respond to queries so I'm hoping someone else may have worked with this device. Any help is appreciated, Robin - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
