Is there any particular reason that you are compiling from source (and using a very old version of freeradis aswell)? If there is no absolute requirement for you to compile from source I'd suggest using the freeradius package in the ubuntu repository. That should get you started with freeradius. YMMV but once you've had a chance to play around with freeradius and maybe want to start using it in a more demanding fashion - then I'd go with compiling it myself. Install it using the following command: sudo apt-get install freeradius In Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy) you'll be installing freeradius 1.1.3 (the latest stable version). I think Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper) carries freeradius 1.1.2 - but I'm not sure. BR, Johannes - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html

I checked the repository before I tried to install using the source. However, I didn't see Freeradius on the list. Once I added the universal repository from Ubuntu, I was able to install Freeradius successfully. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html

Go get a newer version. You are compiling from source, there is no reason not to be using the latest stable version. If you want support, you need to use a version that people can help you with. 2. There was probably an error in make. Look again. If you do something like make make_output.txt that will save the normal STDOUT output to a file (to review later if you like) and the STDERR will still go to your screen and will be easier to see. -- Dennis Skinner Systems Administrator BlueFrog Internet http://www.bluefrog.com - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

Re: Freeradius installation problem
Hi all I'm looking to implement a prepaid card type service - I plan on using Session-Timeout to disconnect the users. How does freeradius keep track of the time elapsed while connected? I am holding all the info in SQL - I guess when a user connects it counts down until 0 then sends the signal to the NAS to disconnect - if the user reconnects it is back to the original value. How can I have a counter that doesn't expire - say the user 'topped up' by 30 days worth on the 9th of the month - it wouldn't expire until 30 days from then (so couldn't use monthly counters?)

Re: Freeradius installation problem
Hi all
I'm looking to implement a prepaid card type service - I plan on using
Session-Timeout to disconnect the users. How does freeradius keep
track of the time elapsed while connected? I am holding all the info
in SQL - I guess when a user connects it counts down until 0 then
sends the signal to the NAS to disconnect - if the user reconnects it
is back to the original value.
Radius doesn't send a message to the NAS to disconnect. The reply of
Session-Timeout tells the NAS when to disconnect. Its up to the NAS to
listen to that reply and actually disconnect the user (most do).
How can I have a counter that doesn't expire - say the user 'topped
up' by 30 days worth on the 9th of the month - it wouldn't expire
until 30 days from then (so couldn't use monthly counters?)
You want to give the user 30 days of access, then do something like this
in sqlcounter
sqlcounter blockoftime {
counter-name = Block-Of-Time
check-name = Session-End-Time
sqlmod-inst = sql
key = User-Name
reset = never
query = select UNIX_TIMESTAMP();
}
then set the session-end-time in their reply attribute to be 30 days after
the time they set up the account. Remember its in unix timestamp format.

Re: Freeradius installation problem
I'm looking to implement a prepaid card type service - I plan on using Session-Timeout to disconnect the users. actually this is not a way prepaid cards works. In this case you are giving the same time for the user at any time he connects to the NAS. But you have to make a mechanism which disables the access for the specific person after some time period. You can try to use sqlcounter module for these purposes. How does freeradius keep track of the time elapsed while connected? I am holding all the info in SQL - I guess when a user connects it counts down until 0 then sends the signal to the NAS to disconnect - if the user reconnects it is back to the original value. it depends on your NAS server - whether it supports or not such a user disconnection. For example, MikroTik does. How can I have a counter that doesn't expire - say the user 'topped up' by 30 days worth on the 9th of the month - it wouldn't expire until 30 days from then (so couldn't use monthly counters?) write your own script, put it in crontab. In the DB add specific column where the deadline should be set for the customer. That script should check this column - whether it's valid or not. Edgars - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?

Re: Freeradius installation problem
I am doing the same thing using chilli, freeradius, and mysql. I use Max-All-Sessions and wrote a counter for it. Of course my cards are good for x seconds. Using Session-Timeout would mean that a session could be x seconds long but as soon as you log back in you can have another x seconds.
