Virtual Connect users and roles 76
Be sure that the username does not conflict with any of the local user accounts configured on the RADIUS
server host. Otherwise, the RADIUS server will use UNIX-based authentication to look up the local
/etc/passwd file. The server will not look up freeradius-server-2.1.9/raddb/users.
3. Add the client entry to the file freeradius-server-2.1.9/raddb/clients.conf:
client {
ipaddr =
secret =
require_message_authenticator = no
nastype = other
}
The RADIUS server ignores authentication requests from an unknown client. Therefore, if the client entry
is absent, the server ignores it. The server does not send a reject response.
4. Add the following to the dictionary file /usr/local/share/freeradius/dictionary.hp for
HP:
ATTRIBUTE HP-VC-groups 192 string HP
The RADIUS server logs are available in the logfile /usr/local/var/log/radius/radius.log.
