I'm writing to you off-list (in private e-mail) rather than post to LUGOD's vox-tech mailing list on account of extreme lack of faith in LUGOD's listowner, Mr. Salzmann. Details here: http://linuxmafia.com/~rick/linux-info/lugod Quoting Ehrhart, Jay (ehrhart@ycoe.org): > I need suggestions on RADIUS software. > I am building a new Red Hat Linux box to replace my Intergate UNIX box. > I have a small ISP service of about 120 users.

Any suggestions on what > RADIUS software I can use on the Red Hat box? http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/modules.html has details of some implementations via hooks at the PAM authentication layer. Here are some RADIUS server projects. o The FreeRADIUS Server Project, http://www.freeradius.org/, is a GPLed variant of the Cistron RADIUS server, similar to Livingston's 2.0 server. o Cistron RADIUS, http://www.radius.cistron.nl/ o GNU RADIUS, http://www.gnu.org/software/radius/radius.html o Radiator, http://www.open.com.au/radiator/ o IC-RADIUS, http://radius.innercite.com/, uses MySQL store, based on Cistron, Web-based user management. Some people recommend this one highly. o The server at ftp://ftp.uni-hohenheim.de/pub/linux/pam/ . Code may not be very mature, and is said to be incompletely PAMified. o Merit AAA Server (formerly Merit RADIUS Server), http://www.merit.edu/michnet/dial-in/aaa/ Some /etc/pam.d/* would need tweaking to use pam_radius_auth.so and maybe pam_set_authtok.so (?). You'll have to get to know PAM pretty well. ;-> -- Cheers, There are only 10 types of people in this world -- Rick Moen those who understand binary arithmetic and those who don't. rick@linuxmafia.com
