Dale,

Thanks for the quick response.

I had hoped to avoid the testing issue by waiting until 2.5 was out of
beta. I should know better.

Turns out the problem was the backup copy of 2.2 that I had started to
fill in on authentication, which had stopped authenticating had been
intercepting the accounting transactions. Once I killed that on the
backup server, the server running 2.5 started working.

Sorry to waste your time, other than to suggest that the manual could
use some sprucing up in the area of 2.2 to 2.5 upgrade. I found
references in troubleshooting that referred to information in chapter 1
that I could not find.

George

Typically, testing something before putting it into production
is a good thing. Especially for mission critical things. :(

What problems are you seeing in -x15 debug more? RadiusNT 2.5
actually uses the ports you specify in the registry (if you
specify them), whereas RadiusNT 2.2 did not. Have you verified
that the ports are correct?

Subject: Running debug in "windowed" mode?
From: "Zak Wolfinger" <zak@cyberlink.com>

Dale,
While attempting to test and debug RadiusNT, I am occasionally
running it in -x15 mode in a window. If I leave it running like that
for a while, I start seeing duplicate auth requests and auth requests
sent to the backup radius server. I'm assuming that the problem is
that it's not auth'ing fast enough when running in a window. Can you
confirm that I'm on the right track? I'm hoping that once I get it
working like I want it to, I will change to running it as a service
and this will be a moot point?

Hey Dale I see this mentioned in the 2.5 Radius list

* New advanced Server/Port Access controls, including time of day
restrictions.

I sent message earlier about setting port types you mentioned in 2.5
(i.e. ISDN and analog users)

By the docs in Chapter 9 I assume this is the DNIS function?

Also, how do you work with the time of day restrictions? I didn't see
any mention in the docs about time of day restrictions. Will all this
work with Emerald we have been wanting to offer a daytime only account
for sometime now.

Hello all,
When I start my SQL server 6.5 SP4, it starts running using
about 110mb ram, it then slowly increases to about 250mb ram
at which point the servers starts complaining about running
out of virtual memory. The machine has 128mb physical memory
and a 130mb swap file. SQL is setup to use 90mb ram on
startup. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Are you sure you have it set to 90MB and not 180MB? When entering in the
value into SQL, it's in incriments of 2MB, so 45000 ~= 90MB and 90000 ~=
180MB

There is a significant amount of "video" time involved in that.
Just minimize the window while you are not actually watching it,
and it will perform very similiarly to running as a service.

Hi!

I've added the Framed-User and Protocol like you suggest me but I does not change anything.

Here is what I have in the RadConfigs table:

RadConfigID AccountID RadAttributeID Data

---------------------------------------------13 659 6 Framed-User 14 659 7 PPP 15 659 8 207.139.145.150 16 659 10 Broadcast-Listen 17 659 13 Van-Jacobsen-TCP-IP

Here is what I get from radius when I try to connect to the AS5200:

Allocating Statement...

SQL Statement: Select ra.RadAttributeID, Name, Data, Value, Type FromRadConfis rc, RadAttributes ra Where ra.RadAttributeID=rc.RadAttributeID ANDrc.AccountD=659

thanks for your help!

What about the value column? See below. > User-Service = Framed-User (1)> Framed-Protocol = PPP (1)> Framed-Address = 207.139.145.150 (1)> Framed-Routing = Broadcast-Listen (1)> Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobsen-TCP-IP (1)

RadiusNT uses the data column for string/IP address types andthe value column for integer types. Your value column forUser-Service is one, which is Login-User and what is actuallysent below. You need to change that to 2 for a framed user,as listed in the dictionary:

VALUE User-Service Login-User 1VALUE User-Service Framed-User 2

PPP is one for Framed-Protocol, but since you aren't specifyinga Framed service, its ignored. The framed-routing most likelyshould be removed.
