One thing to note if you set the protocol to MPP inside the max you
can use DynStat to look at the ISDN line and see it's current
utilization. If set to PP it will not show up in the max under that
section.

Bad digest mean the secret received was incorrect.

Have you had the person running RadiusNT double check THIER side of
the configuration? RadiusNT has been tested against a large number
of RADIUS clients. I would think its irrelevant that its running
on WindowsNT, also.

Thats Server Port access and already available in RadiusNT 2.5.

Are you referring to RadiusNT 2.5 or Emerald 2.5? This is a featurethat will probably make it into a later revision of RadiusNT 2.5 (radlogsdynamic SQL Statement). > >I'm sorry, I didn't finish that sentence (I got interrupted by one of the> >other sysadmins here).

Dale,

What happened to the forms in RadiusNT v2.5? They nolonger exist?

What is the safest way to bring our RadiusNT v2.2 (Access 95) data into RadiusNT v2.5 (Access 97)?

Any suggestions or advice?

any field/data name changes that might cause problems?

Is it possible to import the forms from RadiusNT v2.2 to RadiusNT v2.5?

Please reply... thanks in advance.

Hi all,

We are interested in implementing the Call Check feature on ourLivingston Portmasters. Using a text file this would be accomplish byentering a special record in the users file of the following format:

9255551215 Service-Type = Call-Check, Calling-Station-Id ="9255551215", Called

fred Auth-Type = System Service-Type = Framed-User, Framed-Protocol = PPP

We are using Radius in ODBC mode and we want to make maintenance assimple as possible. In what tables should this information be entered??

We also noticed that using a text file, one of the check items isNAS-Port-Type. However this is not found in Radius. How does Radiushandles these check items amd if we wanted to add more check items, howcould we do this in Radius

You would handlethem just like above. RadiusNT 2.5 supports check attributes in ODBC mode. The RadCheck column tells RadiusNT whether the attribute is acheck attribute (1) or a reply attribute (0).-- Dale E.

When you are done,RadiusNT 2.5 should work against your database. Since you havemost likely modified your Access database, there could be many issues with it. -- Dale E.

I basically did this by just comparing thefields in the tables to those in the documentation. Not thatbig of a change really. Below are some quick notes about it thatcan be found in the /radiusnt/msaccess directory on the FTP site.I also put the enhanced database up there that works with RadiusNT2.5 as well. For those who have asked about where the forms wentin the radius97.mdb file, I created the database from scracth anddidn't put the forms back in. You should be able to just importthem from the old database.-----------------------------------------------------------------------To upgrade an older MS Access database that worked with RadiusNT 2.2so that it works with RadiusNT 2.5, modify the following tablesand add the respective fields:Servers: RadRoamServerID (Number/Long Integer)AccountTypes: DNISGroupID (Number/Long Integer)RadAttributes: RadVendorID (Number/Long Integer) RadVendorType (Number/Long Integer) RadConfigs: RadVendorID (Number/Long Integer) RadVendorType (Number/Long Integer) RadCheck (Number/Long Integer) Default: 0RadATConfigs: RadVendorID (Number/Long Integer) RadVendorType (Number/Long Integer) RadCheck (Number/Long Integer) Default: 0Import Theese tables from the radius97.mdb database. You can do thisby using the File...Import pull down menu. RadLogMsgs RadLogs RadRoamDomains RadRoamServers RadVendorsYou will need to update the relationships manually. They are descibedin the documentation.-- Dale E.
