How to configure RADIUS with MySQL as backend database
 

Hi Guys,

Has anyone tried configuring RADIUS server with MySQL as database..? :)

The setup is, when a client tries to connect to the network, RADIUS server will forward the request to MySQL databse server to check if the username nd password the client has typed in has a match with what MySQL has in the database before RADIUS server authenticates and authorizes the client. :)

Guys do you have any hint on how to do this...or any website that can help me with this?.. :)

Another thing is, Does RADIUS server have the capability to allocate a certain bandwith for a certain user after authenticating the client? :)

I look forward to hear from you guys, thanks a lot..

Regards,

Ronald

Configuring FreeRADIUS with MySQL
 

Hi psychobyte,

Thanks for the information :D

It will be of great help. I will try and follow the steps in there because right now, I'm having problems authenticating users in my /etc/passwd file... it's giving me errors... the NAS and the FreeRADIUS server is actually communicating but it won't authenticate... :D

I'll let you know if I still have problems or question regarding the integration of FreeRADIUS server with MySQL :D


Regards,

Ronald
