Building and installing FreeRADIUS with JRadius support:

- rlm_jradius is now part of the FreeRADIUS CVS tree for version 2.0!

- Download the latest FreeRADIUS server.

wget ftp://ftp.freeradius.org/pub/radius/freeradius-1.X.X.tar.gz

- Unpack FreeRADIUS

tar xzf freeradius-1.X.X.tar.gz
cd freeradius-1.X.X

- Download the JRadius patch and apply it

wget http://dev.coova.org/svn/cjradius/freeradius/patch/freeradius-1.X.X.patch
patch -p1 < freeradius-1.X.X.patch

- Compile and install.

./configure
make
make install

If upgrading an existing configuration:

- Configure FreeRADIUS with the rlm_jradius module. Below we show bits of
the FreeRADIUS etc/raddb/radiusd.conf file. We are only showing the
configurations for JRadius.

modules {
...
jradius {
name = "example" # The "Requester" name (a single
# JRadius server can have
# multiple "applications")
primary = "localhost" # Uses default port 1814
secondary = "192.168.0.1" # Fail-over server
tertiary = "192.168.0.1:8002" # Fail-over server on port 8002
timeout = 1 # Connect Timeout
onfail = NOOP # What to do if no JRadius
# Server is found. Options are:
# FAIL (default), OK, REJECT, NOOP
}
}

authorize {
...
jradius
}

post-auth {
...
jradius
Post-Auth-Type REJECT { # Use this if you want to
jradius # process AccessReject replies
} # from the post-auth handler.
}

preacct {
...
jradius
}

accounting {
...
jradius
}

For the most part, the above configurations are considered to be
required. Only if your FreeRADIUS server is a proxy server would the
following also be used:

pre-proxy {
...
jradius
}

post-proxy {
...
jradius
}

Just like with any FreeRADIUS module, you can add this to any of the
FreeRADIUS entry points. It is probably best to add 'jradius' to the
configurations after all other modules.

- Include the dict/dictionary.jradius dictionary file in your FreeRADIUS
dictionary configuration. You can just simply copy the contents of dict/
to your FreeRADIUS dictionary directory for the default FreeRADIUS
dictionary plus JRadius VSAs.
