NEW Package: freeRADIUS 2.x

Nachtfalke

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.

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…

The PostgreSQL port has a collection of "side orders":

postgresql-docs
  For all of the html documentation

p5-Pg
  A perl5 API for client access to PostgreSQL databases.

postgresql-tcltk 
  If you want tcl/tk client support.

postgresql-jdbc
  For Java JDBC support.

postgresql-odbc
  For client access from unix applications using ODBC as access
  method. Not needed to access unix PostgreSQL servers from Win32
  using ODBC. See below.

ruby-postgres, py-PyGreSQL
  For client access to PostgreSQL databases using the ruby & python
  languages.

postgresql-plperl, postgresql-pltcl & postgresql-plruby
  For using perl5, tcl & ruby as procedural languages.

postgresql-contrib
  Lots of contributed utilities, postgresql functions and

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

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

System –> Package Manager --> Available Packages
and install freeradius2

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

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

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();

Slam

Thanks.

I had the same results, I even commented out the realms section where it denies @ logins, still nothing.

Nachtfalke

@Abdsalem:

Thanks.

I had the same results, I even commented out the realms section where it denies @ logins, still nothing.

Hmm, I am no coding expert so I am not sure why this is happening but I found the follwoing:

http://php.net/manual/de/language.operators.php
So it seems that @ is an operator in PHP.

And in function:
function freeradius_modulesdatacounter_resync()
we need the username (%{request:User-Name}) from freeradius and this could perhaps cause problems.

Is there a way to just get the value of %{request:User-Name} without doing any special with it ?

Slam

Thanks, Im no coder either :0)

It could be my regex skills are also crap, but I thought I'd mention it as I noticed 1 or 2 posts on this thread pointing to this symptom, Ive since moved to an external radius server, just need to work out all the correct configs for it.

But without @ username, the pfsense package worked great, I had 2 pfsense fr2 syncing with eachother with no problems.

Cheers

pszafer

hello,
first @ is not operator in php.
second, both functions You mentioned are bash scripts, so it doesn't matter.

USERNAME=`echo -n "\$1" | sed 's/[^0-9a-zA-Z.:_-@]/X/g'
```this changes special characters to X. But finally it's just name of file so it doesn't matter if you save it with X as tomXmail.com or tom@mail.com.

I don't use this function, but I'll try to help:
1\. Do You have only one backslash before $1 in USERNAME?
2\. Give me ouput (You can cut it, but I need sample name of username file (path /var/log/radacct/datacounter/\$TIMERANGE/max-octets-\$USERNAME"):
You can do this command and paste somewhere.

ls -lar /var/log/radacct/datacounter/ > /root/datacounterlist


3\. As Nachtfalke wrote it could be problem in other function. We need to look into it:
in function freeradius_modulesdatacounter_resync we need to change $conf variable a little.
change only exec datacounterdaily

exec datacounterdaily {
wait = yes
program = "/bin/sh $varFREERADIUS_BASE/etc/raddb/scripts/datacounter_acct.sh %{request:User-Name} daily %{request:Acct-Input-Octets} %{request:Acct-Output-Octets} && /bin/sh echo %{request:User-Name} >> /root/usernames"
}
...


maybe we would know something more with those files ;)

Slam

Thanks very much guys for offering to help and sorry I have not got back to this asap, been a bit busy as I have migrated my entire setup to pfsense 2.1 (radius accounting works great btw), I've setup an external radius server that sits on my dmz and its authenticating and accouting correctly with all my users, including "@" usernames.

I am a little free now to help fix this problem for the community because its ideal and more practical in some cases to give users the option to sign up with their email addresses with the pfSense FR2 package.

I have also worked out how to give users custom replies for my own setup if they fail authentication for what ever reason, I know a few people were looking for this as the default gave inconsistant replies for their setup .i.e "You have entered the wrong credentials" for a user who has used up their data allowance, instead of something liike this "You have used up your data allowance for this month".

Ill setup another vm with pfsense 2.0.3 soon (I cant find where FR2 pkg resides on 2.1) and post the result of the commands pszafer wrote.

TIA

pszafer

Maybe better to test it on pfSense 2.1, so possible problem will no be reproduced in the newest version.

marcelloc

Good news for those that use this package with eap-tls. Current version now includes certificate revocation list(CRL) on eap Tab.
Once you revoke a client certificate, it will not be able to login anymore. :)

Hey guys having a funny issue…with freeradius . It doesn't want to seem to start the freeradius daemon?

When using MySQL with freeradius then you need an SQL server somewhere. FR2 does not have any - it just connects to a SQL server.

Further there is a problem that the configuration is working fpr freeradius 2.1.12 which installs on pfsense 2.0.x.
On pfsense 2.1 the developers updated the package to version 2.2.0. But this version is not represented in the freeradius.inc file. I posted this twice on the mailing list but the did not update the "old" version to 2.2.0, too.

But this could be probably easily fix. Modify:

/usr/local/pkg/freeradius.inc

On lines 83 and 217.

Replace

freeradius-2.1.12

with

freeradius-2.2.0

Then restarting freeradius could do the trick and if it does not then restarting pfsense will do it.

I've also pushed a fix to check installed freeradius lib version. This may reduce config errors.
