Hello Man -

Hello Man -

Thanks for the information.

As far as we are aware there should be no problems with the latest
Radiator 3.7.1 on any platform.

You should upgrade to Radiator 3.7.1.

Hugh

Hi
I intend to use Radiator as radius server to communicate with Quintum
VOIP gateway. The Radiator is deployed on Windows 2000 Platform.
Currently i am using ActiveState Active Perl 5.8.1. Anything wrong in
the platform ?

MAN
Could you please tell me what hardware/software platform you are
running and what versions of Windows and Perl?

Hello Man -

You are correct, Radiator will stop while the program specified by the

AuthBy EXTERNAL command executes. If the program never exits, then
Radiator will wait forever. You should add some "print ..." statements

to the code in the external program to see what it is doing.

BTW - you can also use hooks in your Radiator configuration file for
running your own code. See the examples in "goodies/hooks.txt". And of

course you can also write your own AuthBy module as another
alternative.

Could you please tell me what hardware/software platform you are
running and what versions of Windows and Perl?

regards

Hugh

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.

Above information has shown that radius server received all the
attribute value from client, and it called the external program which
has been define in <AuthBy External>. 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

{
    print "while\n";
    chomp;

    if ($_ =~ /^\s*([^\s=]+)\s*=\s*"((\\"|[^"])*)"/)

        # Quoted value
        print "Quoted value\n";
