ldap authentication using free radius

2010-08-10 Thread Aqdas Muneer
Hello,

We recently had a event during which our radius server lost connectivity to
our Active Directory server. all the network gear could contact radius so
none fell back to the backup authentication method (local), but because AD
was down we couldn't get into our devices. is there a way to use some
locally stored password in free radius if the ldap server cant be reached?

Thanks,

Aqdas

You can for example use the users file.

so this is what i have in my users file. how can i make it so that the admin
account is only used if AD is inaccessible?

admin   Huntgroup-Name == network-admin, Cleartext-Password :=
x
Service-Type := NAS-Prompt-User,
cisco-avpair := shell:priv-lvl=15

DEFAULT Huntgroup-Name == network-admin, Ldap-Group ==
networkadmins
Service-Type := NAS-Prompt-User,
cisco-avpair := shell:priv-lvl=15,
Auth-Type := LDAP
