Hi Previously i did ask a question regarding test run <AuthBy External> by using sample configuration (external.cfg) and perl script (testcommand.pl) which can be found in the goodies directory.
After read thru all the replied emails and relevant document, i tried to execute this sample configuration and perl scrip again. But i still fail to get the correct respond. Hope you can answer the following question. 1.Follwoing are the console screen display of RADIUS server after receive Accept request from the client -------------------Console Screen------------------------- Thu Oct 9 22:54:02 2003: DEBUG: Reading dictionary file 'c:/Program Files/Radia tor/dictionary' Thu Oct 9 22:54:02 2003: DEBUG: Creating authentication port 0.0.0.0:1645 Thu Oct 9 22:54:02 2003: DEBUG: Creating accounting port 0.0.0.0:1646 Thu Oct 9 22:54:02 2003: NOTICE: Server started: Radiator 3.7 on man (EVALUATIO N) Thu Oct 9 22:54:04 2003: DEBUG: Packet dump: *** Received from 127.0.0.1 port 3330 ....

But somehow radius server didn't pass those attributes to external program via STDIN after executed the external program. My question do we need to configure radius configuration file in order to direct radius server pass those attributes to external program via STDIN ? 2.From the above console screen, i also discovered that radius server was halt after calling external program testcommand.pl. I found there is a endless while loop in the testcommand.pl which is shown as following while (<>) { chomp; if ($_ =~ /^\s*([^\s=]+)\s*=\s*"((\\"|[^"])*)"/) { # Quoted value $input{$1} = $2; } elsif ($_ =~ /^([^\s=]+)\s*=\s*(.*)/) { # Unquoted value $input{$1} = $2; } } : : My question is can it be the root to cause the radius server halt ? thank you MAN MENG FEI while ($counter < 4) { print "while\n"; chomp; if ($_ =~ /^\s*([^\s=]+)\s*=\s*"((\\"|[^"])*)"/) { # Quoted value print "Quoted value\n"; $input{$1} = $2; } elsif ($_ =~ /^([^\s=]+)\s*=\s*(.*)/) { # Unquoted value print "Unquoted value\n"; $input{$1} = $2; } $counter++; } : : === Archive at http://www.open.com.au/archives/radiator/ Announcements on [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, email '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' with 'unsubscribe radiator' in the body of the message.
