NEW Package: freeRADIUS 2.x
-
Thank you for the information. I will give it a further try as I went down there before to some extent and still reached a road block.
One of the issues that I got was when making changes to ../raddb/sites-available/default, it gets wiped out if a then use the GUI. Is there a way to prevent this?

Hi,
yes this is a known behaviour. The GUI is limited in some way. To make sure that your changes in this file will not beoverwritten after a reboot or some GUI changes you need to make your changes on:
/usr/local/pkg/freeradius.incThe part you need to modify is between line 1295 and 2140. Probably start at line 1460.
Unfortunately this will be also overwritten if updating the package. On some other forum post I read an idea where someone is creating a .diff between the original freeradius.inc and th new one you created. Then importing the .diff with the help of the "System patches" package. This would make changes easier imported.

OK, I added this code after preprocess in the authorize section of /usr/local/pkg/freeradius.inc (line 1548) but it does not seem to notice it is there. I would assume the syntax may not be correct and get an error at least.
preprocess rewrite.called_station_id if ($varusersvlanid != '%{Called-Station-SSID}') { update control { Auth-Type := Reject } }BTW - The following were added to the respective files below to get the Called-Station-SSID to capture the SSID passed from the AP in Access-Request - Called-Station-Id = "0E-XX-XX-XX-24-3B:MySSID" and appears to expand correctly and capture the SSID.
raddb/dictionary
# The SSID the supplicant/user device connected to ATTRIBUTE Called-Station-SSID 3010 stringraddb/policy.conf
# Add "rewrite.called_station_id" in the "authorize" and "preacct" # sections. rewrite.called_station_id { if((Called-Station-Id) && "%{Called-Station-Id}" =~ /^%{config:policy.mac-addr}(:(.+))?$/i) { update request { Called-Station-Id := "%{tolower:%{1}-%{2}-%{3}-%{4}-%{5}-%{6}}" } # SSID component? if ("%{8}") { update request { Called-Station-Id := "%{Called-Station-Id}:%{8}" Called-Station-SSID :="%{8}" <<------ added this } } updated } else { noop } } -
Well, I decided with the number of hoops I was jumping through and still not get it to work, I went with a SaaS provider Radius instead. Anyway, just wanted to leave what I have partially working. I got rid of the users flat file and enable a MySQL DB instead. I then included this after preprocess:
if("%{sql:SELECT count(*) FROM `radusergroup` WHERE username = '%{User-Name}' AND groupname = '%{Called-Station-SSID}'}" < 1){ update control { Auth-Type := Reject } }This works with radtest as I am able to change the ssid and the accept/reject works as expected. However, on an actual Android device I only get rejects with nothing really informative as to why.
Thanks for the help.

you need to run freeradius in debug mode to get all output of errors and warnings.
Did you try tu run freeradius with this command:radiusd -XPlease make sure you killed the running radiusd process before starting again in debug mode.
-
yes, did radiusd -X and radiusd -XX

Hi,
I have installed this package with MySQL on the same server and is working ok. I need to run a php script to reconnect users if the server restarts, if I execute it manually it work, but I want to run it on sratup after Radius and Mysql have start, where in /usr/local/pkg/freeradius.inc would a call to the function go?Thanks for your help

Unfortunately there are many places and situation when freeradius needs to restart the service so that changes will take effect. So in general freeradius restarts everywhere where this line can be found:
restart_service('radiusd')On line 1292 the ySQL configuration of freeradius will be loaded and freeradius restarted.
Perhaps doing a cron job which runs periodically and executes your script can do the job? Not sure what you script does and if it hurts if it runs every minute or so.

Thanks for the info Nachtfalke. Basically what I need to do is not to stop the accounting of users connected via the captive portal so that when a reboot occurs users do not have to reauthenticate. I have disabled the accounting stop and when rebooted freeradius just continues to count for some seconds, but the problem is that the firewall rules were not created and therefore the user goes back to blocked by the oprtal. I don't know if my best bet is no rewrite the captiveportal db from mysql and then restart accounting for those users or some other way.
Now if I call my function on line 1292 I get error:
radiusd[20265]: rlm_sql_mysql: Couldn't connect socket to MySQL server rednet@localhost:radius radiusd[20265]: rlm_sql_mysql: Mysql error 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)'Thanks for your help.

Hi all,
I read the entire topic, because i wanna use Freeradius to authenticate against AD.
In the topic there are suggestions to make it possible via the gui.My question is. Is it now possible to authencate against AD without the tweaking?
Or do i have to use the tutorial from MatSim (Nachtfalke, marcelloc)Thanx in advance.

Unfortunately my last info is that it does not work without any tweaks and only with GUI.
I do not know which topic/tutorial you mean but probably it is the correct one ;-) -

Thanx for your reply. I meant the post of MatSim in this topic.
I hope still that in the near feature someone can make the solution.
I can be probely help with testing:)
At this moment I will try MatSim his tutorial.@MatSim:
I have shortened and rewritten what I took out of the FreeRADIUS beginners guide and put that in a Google doc to check if I am on the wrong way. This is a very much WiP and also a temporary place:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1i536CfITm478tAddzoxSLrjl9KcEqGGA-F_LG9Iwy6A/edit
With ntlm_auth it's possible to add a AD group requirement haven't tried that yet.I'd also agree with marcelloc that it's not the best idea to pull in Samba automatically by freeradius since it's only needed when ntlm_auth comes into the game.
P.S: Nifty idea I came across - any plans to support virtual servers on pfSense with freeradius instead of default sites-enabled/default?

Hi Nachtfalke,
would it be possible for you to compile a radius version with eDIr Support? Just add the WITH_eDIR Option when compiling.
Thanks

Hallo Rainer,
unfortunately I was never familar with these compile option syntax on pfsense github. There were always other people who added these parameters (for me) :P. So if you are more familar with that then just add your option to these two files on github:
https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense-packages/blob/master/pkg_config.8.xml
https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense-packages/blob/master/pkg_config.8.xml.amd64Then contact a moderator - as far as I know jimp could be the right person - to compile a new freeradius package.
PS: I cannot do any tests on this package anymore nor can I add further features because I left my old company and the new one is not really open for open source products so probably no pfsense for me anymore the next time :-\
So if anybody else likes to maintain this package please feel free to do so!
Good luck!

freeradius 3 is available.
hopefully someone will continue this package. -
Dear Package Developers & Experts,
please consider, if the settings unter "EAP" and then "CERTIFICATES FOR TLS" do work as intended in the freeradius2, 2.1.12_1/2.2.4 pkg v. 1.6.7_3 package. My aim is to use EAP-TLS.
The settings suggest that one can choose between the FreeRADIUS Cert-Manager (not recommended) and Firewall Cert-Manager (recommended). To use the recommended variant, one has to check the box in "Choose Cert-Manager". As indicated, the Firewall Cert-Manager generates certificates with no private key passwords. Correspondingly, the instructions on "Private Key Password" are "… The certificates created by the firewall's built-in Cert Manager are not protected so you must leave this field empty.". However, the eap.conf file - as far as I can tell - always contains either the password that one does actively enter into the field or the default password (private_key_password = whatever). I think that a configuration with an empty password cannot be generated. With a private_key_password set to anything or "whatever" or at least not nothing at all, the configuration does not seem to work with keyless certificates of the Firewall Cert-Manager. What happens if it does not work is described in more detail under https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=78684.msg429199#msg429199.

Hi,
try to modify the line 899 from this:
$vareapconfprivatekeypassword = ($eapconf['vareapconfprivatekeypassword']?$eapconf['vareapconfprivatekeypassword']:'whatever');to this:
$vareapconfprivatekeypassword = ($eapconf['vareapconfprivatekeypassword']?$eapconf['vareapconfprivatekeypassword']:'');Then try again with an empty field on the freeradius EAP GUI.
If it works - consider making a change on github. -
Dear Nachtfalke,
Thank you very much! I am generally able to edit files on the pfSense server using Diagnostics->edit file or via ssh. I can also see the freeradius.inc-file on github. However, I lack the skills required to connect both sides. In particular, I did have a hard time locating the file to be edited on the pfsense server, if this is what you imply. I assume that it may be in /user/pbi/freeradius-amd64, however, there is a large directory structure with many files there. Could you plese tell me where to find the file in question?
Regards,
Michael Schefczyk

Hi Nachtfalke,
do you have plans to make freeradius2 work on 2.2? Sadly it still refuses to start with the following output, I just updated my system to the latest Alpha release.
Jul 8 11:18:27 root: /usr/pbi/freeradius-amd64/etc/rc.d/radiusd: WARNING: /usr/local/etc/raddb is not a directory. Jul 8 11:18:27 root: /usr/pbi/freeradius-amd64/etc/rc.d/radiusd: WARNING: failed precmd routine for radiusd -
You can go to shell a do a search for the files you are looking for like this:
find / -iname "*freeradius*"This shows you all files which contain "freeradius" within with any letters before or behind.
The file you are looking for is "freeradius.inc" You will find this file here:/usr/local/pkg/@athurdent
I left my old company more than 6 months ago and the new company does not use pfsense nor are there plans to do so :(
So I personally will not do any changes on this package anymore but everyone who is able to do so and has time please feel free to do it!I only built this package in the past because I needed it and I had the hardware to test all or most of these features in my environment.
