      That is the behaviour of files which are configured by GUI. They will be overwritten in many situations.
      You have to wait until the freeradius pkg 1.4.3 or higher is available. There is nothing I can do now - you could ask the pfsense developers why the repo isn't syncing.

        Updates pkg v1.4.4:

        • Added: LDAP GUI -> We need to wait until we can use the freeradius2 package compiled with the missing dependencies and modules (rlm_ldap) but the GUI is working

        Updates pkg v1.4.5:

        • Added: Ability to do use first 802.1X auth and if this fails check the Access-Request against a plain mac auth file (authorized_macs). This will help us if we use a NAS which does not support converting the mac address into a "username/password"-802.1X like Access-Request.

        • Added: Plain MAC Auth entries could now be synced with XMLRPC

        • TO-DO: Check/Test how we could place check and reply-items the beste way in authorized_macs.

        • Updated: Documentation on docs.pfsense.org

          Hi,

          Very useful package!!! Thanks a lot!
          My question is:

          1. Does this package support Mysql now? Actually I can see the option in the PF Menu but it seems not working.

          2. I would like to create a Hotspot by using this package + Captive Portal + MySQL + DDWRT Router. (eg:http://www.wiwiz.com/)
                It would be great appreciated if there is any references for setting these matters？

          Sorry for the poor English.
          Thanks again for any reply！

            Hi,

            1. LDAP and SQL isn't supported at the moment. The GUI is ready but we first have to compile freeradius with MySQL, PostgreSQL and LDAP support. This takes some time but it will be supported in the - hopefully - near future.

            2. I didn't use that but as far as I know the CaptivePortal in pfsense supports connecting to a RADIUS. An if this package has MySQL support this should be possible for you to realize.

                  Updates pkg v1.4.6:

                  • Fixed: When Plain MAC Auth is enabled we are now able to not only check against EAP-X but against all other modules. The MAC check is now before all other checks and if it fails it proceeds with the rest.

                      I'm trying to get LDAP working but I'm getting the following output:

                      
  [ldap] ldap_search() failed: Operations error
[ldap] search failed
  [ldap] ldap_release_conn: Release Id: 0
++[ldap] returns fail
Invalid user:  [USER/PASSW]

                      Does anyone know why this is happening? When I manually do an ldap search with another program with the same user I do get a result back.

                        Hello!
                        So Nachtfalke and marcelloc,  thank you for great job!

                        I've done the same job about two weeks ago and I regret now not sharing my work :/
                        I've compiled ldap, kerberos modules (don't needed mysql and other db's).

                        So now to make AD integration possible it is necessary to have Samba and Kerberos packages.
                        why?
                        simple version, maybe little mixed up. samba has winbind, which allow kerberos to authenticate in windows domain.
                        winbind has module ntlm_auth which can ask server about the user, but we have to be member of domain.

                        so what am I doing is tryin' to compile Samba 3 for Pfsense, next Kerberos and will post here about results

                          you didn't give anything about your config, but I'll try guess:

                          If you have MS AD try to filter:
                          (sAMAccountName=%{mschap:User-Name})
                          otherwise maybe:
                          (uid=%{mschap:User-Name})

                          I don't know if you have your Identity configured properly, show it for us

                            Sorry, its indeed MS AD (2008R2). I already tried with the sAMAccountName but didn't had the MSCHAP in it, tried it again, but still no luck:

                              as far as I know if you want filter sAMAccountName you have to use Microsoft style, so dc, dc ;)

                                On Google this gives me lots of results but not really a solution. (The DN bind user is Administrator, so its not a permission issue - found some posts refering to this)

                                Also "set_auth_type = yes/no" as mentioned on Google doesn't help.

                                  Thank you very much for your feedback. I read about the samba and winbind "problematic" to use an Active Directory with freeradius. But I am not sure at all now - I thought that Win Server 2003 and higher has LDAP compatibility but you first have to enable something on Windows Server. But I am not sure on that and I do not find the documentation…

                                  freeradius2 has an "rlm_smb" module but this is still experimental. This is the excerpt of the makefile:

                                  # No SMB option yet; rlm_smb is still unbuildable
.ifdef(WITH_SMB)
LIB_DEPENDS=	smbclient.0:${PORTSDIR}/net/samba-libsmbclient
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--with-rlm_smb
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--with-rlm-smb-lib-dir=${LOCALBASE}/lib
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--with-rlm-smb-include-dir=${LOCALBASE}/include
PLIST_SUB+=	SMB=""
.else
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--without-rlm_smb
PLIST_SUB+=	SMB="@comment "
.endif

# SMB module is still experimental
.if defined(WITH_SMB) && !defined(WITH_EXPERIMENTAL)
WITH_EXPERIMENTAL=	yes
.endif

                                  The third thing I read about here in the forum is/was that someone had installed samba on pfsense but it breaks the hole system.

                                  @pszafer:
                                  You wrote you worked on freeradius2 (compiling) in the past. Did you use it on pfsense and how did you get it work with LDAP and/or AD ?
                                  If there are samba binaries which don't breake the system I am sure we can add these to freeradius2 package and the create a GUI to edit the smb.conf. That shouldn't be to hard if we know the command lines.

                                    in /usr/local/etc/raddb/sites-enabled/default
                                    you have authentication section

                                    so far we've got plaint text password and this is our problem, we need nt-domain hash.
                                    you could try comment line with unix auth
                                    and uncomment Auth-Type LDAP, but this will propably cause other errors.
                                    I've done this before so linux users with pap auth were authenticated succesfully,  but trully I remove this and backuped in wrong place (it's gone) so I can't easy come back to this, but I don't want to.

                                    AD is compatible with LDAP in way we wanted to.
                                    We need Kerberos to get ticket to get authenticated - http://www.google.pl/imgres?q=kerberos+eap&um=1&hl=pl&authuser=0&biw=1920&bih=913&tbm=isch&tbnid=4SMvBpPK_Big9M:&imgrefurl=http://anil-identity.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html&docid=xeW3QfB9c27wtM&imgurl=http://identitymeme.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/krbandweb-opps_06-700x366.png&w=700&h=366&ei=gUcLT5qpEcmq-AaFwL20AQ&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=1506&vpy=159&dur=1520&hovh=162&hovw=311&tx=119&ty=97&sig=107427534317749718724&page=1&tbnh=86&tbnw=164&start=0&ndsp=53&ved=1t:429,r:8,s:0

                                    To get Kerberos working with AD we need get winbind (which is in Samba packet). Winbind is service allows to get authenticated over Windows PDC.
                                    rlm_smb is something worth to try and interesting.

                                    About Samba compiling, I think someone could try to use samba as file sharing server so firewall would be messed up.
                                    I wanted to use Samba only for purpose to authenticate user and I think it is possible ;)

                                    Two weeks ago I've bought new netgear router to my workplace, upgraded to OpenWRT and wanted to authenticate wifi via 802.1x.
                                    As Domain Controller shouldn't be used for this for security reasons I decided to do it on pfsense router. Didn't search forum what's going on with this packet, didn't see this in GUI so recompiled freeradius on freebsd virtual machine and added necessary libraries for that.
                                    I've come here because I was exhausted for tryin' ntlm_auth to work. Squid package has some ntlm_auth without samba, so I assumed it is possible. Now I think my assumption was wrong :P

                                    Okay, now I'm reading about rlm_smb, maybe do something with that.

                                    –------------------
                                    one weird thing, in dd-wrt it is for 5 years and it is still experimental? am I missing something?

                                      Only if you do it by hand, installing freebsd packages.Samba as a pfSense package is really not a good idea for firewall.

                                        in freebsd packages there are no security=ads. Unfortunately we need only this from samba :/

                                          Ddid you tried with kerberos? there is a way to do this without samba.
