NEW Package: freeRADIUS 2.x

As the night owl said…

If you want to anger me then you call it "owl" - but the correct translation should be "hawk" - just kidding :-)
I took this name from an old game called "Betrayal at Krondor".

@skoenman
Why do you want to use mysql ?
Do you have so many users ?
Do you need any special options that cannot be done bei the local "users" file ?

skoenman · Jan 15, 2013, 5:38 PM

Well i have a whmcs server with mysql/freeradius interface which basicly loads the usernames and passwords in the mysql database….so this is why i want pfsense to sync the usernames so that i can do rate limiting and capping from pfsense.

@qbik:

I got it to work, I edited the files but did not know the config resets on reboot, so I edited freeradius.inc on line 362 and 1633, now all is working. On the other server I am using the normal freeradius package installed by me. I just need some more customization for french error message, working on it right now, i will upload the screenshots for the vouchers soon. This package is great, thanks again!

@qbik:

Hi I am using this package and created a group with 2 attributes: Max-All-Session := 600 (5 min) Simultaneous-Use := 1. I've enabled the noresetcounter on radiusd.conf, users on that group are able to authenticate ok, however they do not get disconnected after 600 sec have past. CP is enabled, interim updates enabled, authenticate users every minute is enabled. I have the same setup on another pf sense server with freeradius installed but not with this package and all is working ok on that one. I am using MySQL on both.

Thanks

Hi,
do you use freeradius2 package on both pfsense or not ? That's not clear for me.

the attribute: Max-All-Session is not a predefined attribute in GUI. So you probably created this attribute in your mysql database ? And if you use mysql as database for accounting then you need to use the sqlcounter.conf file. This file is NOT supported from GUI. You need to check and perhaps edit this file from shell.

I don't how it works with mxsql but if I use the ../raddb/modules/counter module (without external database) then this modul is ONLY running on accounting-stop packets, interim-updates do not work. So make sure that it does with mysql.

re-authenticate every minute should be enabled on CP so that the user gets disconnected. that's right what you did. You should enabled "Disable acct_unique" in FreeRADIUS -> Settings to make accounting work properly.

For anybody still in doubt pfsense indeed resets few .conf files on reboot eg radiusd.conf sql.conf clients.conf . the file freeradius.inc is responsible for this. freeradius.inc is located in /usr/local/pkg/ ( I am just writing this to help anyone facing any problems with this.. like i did )

I "upgraded" to 64-bit pfSense 2.1 Beta 1 in order to get more available RAM and now FreeRadius is broken. It doesn't respond to authentication attempts and radiusd now sits at a steady 25% CPU load when running. Configuration files were the same (I messed around a little with EAP type and stuff which I really don't understand and created new certificates but it's now set back mostly at least how it was when working fine on 32-bit). It just appears broken on 64-bit. Any ideas?

pszafer · Feb 18, 2013, 7:43 AM

maybe try to click 'Save' in eg EAP tab, so config of freeradius will be recreated. Then if problem still occurs paste some System logs of radiusd process.

markuhde · Feb 18, 2013, 9:13 AM

I completely redid the configuration, deleted freeradius from config.xml and reinstalled package and started over. Same 25% CPU from the moment the package started. I'm clueless… what should I post?

Here's the output of radiusd -X :

A problem could be the different versions of freeradius on pfsense 2.0 and 2.1
jimp did some changes on the pfsense server and updated some freeradius files for new freeradius 2.2.0 version.

pfsense 2.1 is using freeradius 2.2.0 and pfsense 2.0.x is using freeradius 2.1.12. The reinstall could give you the newer version and the freeradius.inc file didn't get that.

Try to edit the /usr/local/pkg/freeradius.inc file on line 83 and 216

I will contact jimp to check if it is possible to make a new freeradius2 .tbz file for pfsense 2.0 so that all system use the same version and .inc file can be fixed.

Thanks, I edited those lines, FreeRADIUS still just locks at 25% CPU load when started. If you are interested to help troubleshoot the package, I can give you login credentials if you PM me. Unfortunately, I can't pay anything since I'm doing this work for free for a non-profit camp…

[2.1-BETA1][admin@glacierfire.glaciercamp]/root(2):

Nachtfalke · Feb 18, 2013, 8:29 PM

Hi again,

I did and upgrade of an "old" pfsense 2.1-BETA0 with freeradius2.1.12 to todays pfsense snapshot and freeradius2.2.0

Service started and no problems with high CPU usage.
But nevertheless there is something which needs to be corrected and please make sure you did that.

Edit the freeradius.inc file:


vi /usr/local/pkg/freeradius.inc

Remove this line 83:

exec("chown -R root:wheel " . FREERADIUS_BASE . "/etc/raddb && chown -R root:wheel " . FREERADIUS_BASE . "/lib/freeradius-2.1.12 && chown -R root:wheel /var/log/radacct");

With this line:

[code]exec("chown -R root:wheel " . FREERADIUS_BASE . "/etc/raddb && chown -R root:wheel " . FREERADIUS_BASE . "/lib/freeradius-2.2.0 && chown -R root:wheel /var/log/radacct");[/code]

Remove this line 216:

libdir = \${exec_prefix}/lib/freeradius-2.1.12

with this line:

libdir = \${exec_prefix}/lib/freeradius-2.2.0

Save the freeradius.inc

Now go to Diagnoctics –> Command Prompt and put the following into the PHP Execute:

require_once('/usr/local/pkg/freeradius.inc');
freeradius_install_command();

This command will take some time. It will recreate all folders and config files and restart freeradius service.
After that try again if it is working.

Question:
Do you "just" have problems with high CPU usage or do you have problems with freeradius at all? Does it show you "Ready to process requests" ?

PS: No need to SSH and no need to pay money. Use your money for usefull things or donate to pfsense but not to me ;-)

markuhde · Feb 18, 2013, 11:55 PM

No, it's not just high CPU usage, it doesn't work, never gets to ready to process. I sent you exactly what it does :) I edited those files but I never ran that command you told me to, just did that. It still gets stuck on the same line (add defaults: start). Here's the radiusd thread causing the 25% CPU use:

59445 root 119 0 34040M 9348K CPU1 1 1:13 100.00% radiusd

100% use on that virtual core, it's like it's pegging it out in some kind of loop. Always worked fine on 32-bit. Maybe a complete system reinstall as 64-bit is in order, but it won't be able to happen for a month or so (though the RADIUS is only needed for youth camps come summer, right now it's all rental groups that don't get to bypass the proxy server :) )

Nachtfalke · Feb 19, 2013, 12:53 PM

Perhaps just try with a complete fresh install.

Do not mix architectures between snapshots. Just start with amd64 and stay on amd64 or do a fresh install.
And after you installed the freeradius2 package again, do the changes, run the command I wrote and then try again :-)

markuhde · Feb 19, 2013, 1:58 PM

Yeah, but I can't do a fresh install for about three weeks :) Going to just do that!

Nachtfalke · Feb 19, 2013, 2:22 PM

Is freeradius2 starting if you remove all config entries from config.xml file and do a fresh freeradius2 installation ?
The only thing you need to configure is a listening interface and then freeradius must start. If it starts it could be an config problem - some special char or some syntax error.

Just a suggestion.

markuhde · Feb 20, 2013, 6:48 AM

Nope, I tried that already, no luck. I actually deleted my entire configuration and started over. Thus why there's no users except the one test user…

===============================================================================

To enable FreeRADIUS, put the following line in /etc/rc.conf

radiusd_enable="YES"

The sample configuration can be found at
/usr/local/share/examples/freeradius/raddb

If you are upgrading FreeRADIUS, you are advised to use this as a reference
for updating your configuration.

FreeRADIUS will look for its configuration directory at
/usr/local/etc/raddb by default.

If you did not already have a configuration at this location, the sample
configuration has been copied to this location and has been bootstrapped.

If you wish to point FreeRADIUS to a configuration at a different
location, put the following line in /etc/rc.conf

radiusd_flags="-d /path/to/raddb"

To start the server in normal (daemon) mode, run:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/radiusd start

and to stop the server, run:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/radiusd stop

To start the server in debugging mode, run:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/radiusd debug

You are advised to make cautious changes to the configuration, and to test
frequently, using debugging mode where necessary. Try to resist the
temptation to disable or delete things that you don't understand - you may
well break things!

The documentation has been installed at /usr/local/share/doc/freeradius

Useful configuration advice can be found in the FreeRADIUS Wiki at
http://wiki.freeradius.org

If you want to use freeradius2 package on pfsense then just go to

No need to do that manual from the console and it will not work.

gdbm fatal: read error

I saw this problem several times in other threads. In most cases it was a problem with the pfsense installation.
Can you try to do a fresh installation of pfsense and try the package again ?

In general freeradius2 should start after you setup a listening interface.

Slam · Apr 13, 2013, 1:01 AM

Thanks for this great contribution.

I am currently testing pfsense 2.0.3 with freeradius2 in appliance only mode.

I think I've found a small bug, if a radius user is created with an email address .i.e "tom@example.com" and "Amount of traffic" is set, this user is unable to login.

I've added "@" to /usr/local/etc/raddb/scripts/datacounter_*.sh files on the line

USERNAME=`echo -n "$1" | sed 's/[^0-9a-zA-Z.:_-[color=red]@]/X/g'

I am able to log on with "tom@example.com", however traffic accounting completely stops, for all users not just ones with @ in their names, if I remove my changes from /usr/local/etc/raddb/scripts/datacounter_acct.sh, accounting works again but not for @ usernames.

Any help?

Nachtfalke · Apr 13, 2013, 11:09 AM

You probably need to modify that on both functions:

freeradius_datacounter_auth_resync()
freeradius_datacounter_acct_resync()

Further you need to restart pfsense to recreate the .sh files.

Or you go to diagnostics –> command prompt:

require_once("/usr/local/pkg/freeradius.inc");
freeradius_datacounter_auth_resync();
freeradius_datacounter_acct_resync();
