Re: (RADIATOR) Radiator as a Windows Service

2003-03-30 Thread Hugh Irvine
Hello Brian -

You might try installing "cygwin" (www.cygwin.com) to see whether "tail 
-f" works.

You might also consider using an AuthLog clause (section 6.50 in the 
manual).

regards

Hugh

Hi Mike,

The ability to run Radiator as an NT service is excellent and I would 
like
to say well done indeed!

Personally, I very much like the ability to monitor a users ability 
(or more
importantly their inability) to login in real time.  Running Radiator 
in a
command window allows me to view the log file "as it happens" - much 
like a
"tail -f" would do in a Unix environment.

Is their any way to view the logfile in real time (or close to real 
time)
when running Radiator as a service on NT?

Subject: (RADIATOR) Radiator as a Windows Service

Hello all,

Up until now, users wishing to run Radiator as a Service on Windows 
were
required to install and configure a Service program such as SRVANY or
FireDaemon.

We have recently uploaded patches to the Radiator 3.5 patches area 
that
allow
Radiator to install and run itself as a Windows Service. This has also
involved some restructuring of some of the internals of radiusd. These
patches will appear in the next release of Radiator but in the 
meantime we
would welcome any comments on its use.

Now, on Windows,  radiusd supports some new command line arguments:

-service
Tells Radiator to run as a Windows Service. Requires Win32::Daemon, 
and
requires that the service have been previously installed with the
-installservice flag. Requires Win32::Daemon.

-installservice
On Windows, installs or reinstalls Radiator to run as a Windows 
Service.
The
service will be configured to run Radiator with all the same 
arguments as
was
passed with -installservice, and it will add the -service flag. After
this,
the Radiator service will appear in the Windows Service list as 
`Radiator
Radius Server'. The Service will automatically start next time the 
host is
booted. Requires Win32::Daemon.

-uninstallservice
On Windows, removes Radiator from Running as a Windows Service. 
Ensure the
service is stopped before uninstalling it. Requires Win32::Daemon.

Win32::Daemon can be installed on Windows with:
ppm install http://www.roth.net/perl/packages/win32-daemon.ppd
None of these changes are expected to effect the ability to run 
Radiator
as a
service under SRVANY or FireDaemon, or as a daemon on Unix.

Furthermore, on Windows, the command
perl Makefile.PL install
now also creates a folder C:\Program Files\Radiator and installs 
sample
configuration, users and dictionary files (if they are not already 
there).
This is expected to improve the installation process for Windows 
users.

Test and comments direct to me are welcome.
Cheers.

(RADIATOR) Handler for capturing 151 at the end of the Called-Station-Id

2003-03-30 Thread Martin Edge
Title: Message



Hey 
Guys,
 
Just a quick 
check..
 
How would I write a 
handler to capture all numbers ending in a particular 
suffix?
 
 ?
 
Obviously 151 is 
quite small and likely to appear in the middle of parts of other numbers... Thus 
has to be matched on the end of the line.
 
Thanks
Martin

You might also consider using Radar to monitor your Radiator: it can monitor 
it for healt and email you, pop up alarms etc if the Radiator is apparently 
not responding.

2003-03-30 Thread Hugh Irvine

Hello Martin -

Yes this is correct - although you should always do some testing to verify correct operation.

Also note that Handlers are evaluated in the order they appear in the configuration file, so the more specific must appear before the more general.

regards

Hugh

Hi Mike,

I am glad to say that Radiator has never once failed in the three or four
years we have been using it.  Your product rocks!

(RADIATOR) 802.1x PKI certificate authority: expressions of interest sought

2003-03-30 Thread Mike McCauley
Hello all,

Those of you with an interest in 802.1x EAP authentication will know that a 
number of the now common EAP authentication protocols require a server 
certificate and sometimes a client PKI certificate. We ship some test 
certificates with Radiator to assist with evaluation and testing, but in a 
production deployment you will need real certificates from a public or 
private certificate authority.

Further PKI certificates are relevant for IPSec as well as other SSL secured 
applications.

Certificates from a public certificate authority such as Verisign are 
expensive (US250 per year per certificate are common). If you run a large 
number of TLS clients or Web Browsers client certificates, this would fast 
become very expensive.

Private certificate authority software (allowing you to generate you own 
certificates for internal use) are frequently cumbersome and expensive to 
deploy and maintain.

We expect soon to be able to offer web-based private certificate authority 
software suitable for a Unix/OpenSSL/Apache/MySQL environment. You can use 
this certificate authority to generate 802.1x server and client certificates 
for use with Radiator and Windows, as well as web browser client 
certificates, private web server certificates etc.

If you might be interested in this type of software, please respond to me 
directly at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I can provide further details.

Cheers.
