7 * Removed radrelay and radsqlrelay. See "man radrelay.conf" for
9 * Re-organized the RFC dictionaries to be clearer
10 * Full IPv6 support. The server can listen on IPv6 sockets,

17 * The command-line options "-i ipaddr" and "-p port" now work.
18 * rlm_unix no longer reads /etc/passwd (etc.) directly. See
19 "man rlm_unix" for details. Also see the "authorize" section
21 * Configuration files now use binary trees, which means that
22 arbitrary amounts of information can be stored in them.
23 * Fixed xlat's for %{config:...}. Dynamic expanstion now works
24 better, so %{config:section.subsection.%{User-Name}.item" works,
25 even if the User-Name contains periods. This is a cheap way
26 of getting in-memory databases, as anything can be put into
27 the configuration files.
28 * Fix locking issues for radrelay.
29 * Add radsqlrelay, which works like radrelay, but reads data
31 * rlm_ldap now auto-discovers password headers. See the "ldap"

75 * Fix bug in calling checkrad script with NAS port > 9999999
76 * Fix long-standing bug when both crypt and pthreads are in use
78 FreeRADIUS 1.0.1 ; Date: 2004/09/02 10:52:03, urgency=high

114 Interix (SFU on Windows XP).
115 * EAP module configuration is now in "raddb/eap.conf", as it was
117 * Updated GPL boilerplate in the source.
118 * Added new RFC's to doc/rfc/
119 * Added more "man" pages for many of the modules. Many of the
120 'doc/rlm_*' files have been deleted, and replaced with 'man' pages.
121 * Added many new dictionaries: 3GPP, 3GPP2, Propel, Karlnet,
122 Sonicwall, Navini, Bristol University, Valemont, Mikrotik.

130 Core feature improvements
131 * Many, many minor bug fixes and feature enhancements.
132 * Added "reject" action in configurable failover for modules
133 * Added a "listen" directive, which supersedes the old
134 "bind_address" and "port" directives. "listen" allows much
135 finer-grained control over what IP's, ports, and packets the
136 server pays attention to.
137 * The proxy code has been updated to work properly, and to
138 allocate new sockets for proxying packets when there are more
139 than 256 requests outstanding to a home server. Many thanks
140 to Stephen Jaeger for help in debugging the new feature.
141 * Regular expression matches in brackets can now be referenced
142 as in Perl, via %{1}, %{2}, etc.
143 * added ability for mschap module to use ntlm_auth, to perform
144 MS-CHAPv1 and MS-CHAPv2 authentication against a Windows
146 * Check return value from registered xlat functions. If return
147 value is 0, treat the attribute as not found. This lets things
148 like %{sql: select... :-FAILED} work.
149 * Realms can now be configured to ignore DEFAULT and NULL
150 realms. This makes prefix/suffix realms co-exists a little
152 * Added red-black tree implementation to src/lib. The
153 dictionaries now use it, rather than singly linked lists. Tests
154 indicate that the server is up to 30% faster.
155 * Updated MSCHAP module to be able to better deal with Windows
156 machines which put a username with domain into User-Name, but
157 which use only the username to create the MS-CHAP-Response.
158 * Made "hints" file more generic and flexible, without changing
160 * Enhanced configuration file variable handling. See
161 doc/variables.txt for details.
162 * Checks for OpenSSL now enforce version number, and are common
163 across all modules, rather than being duplicated.
164 * Implement "udpfromto", which allows the server to work better in
165 LVS. Code from Jan Berkel and Miquel van Smoorenburg. To use
166 it, do: ./configure --with-udpfromto=yes
167 * Re-arranged "walk over cached requests" code for clarity.
168 * The server now keeps more SNMP statistics about the packets it
170 * De-coupled the queue of input requests from the pool of threads.
171 This allows "spikes" of requests to be queued, even though all
172 threads are busy. This change significantly increases the
173 servers ability to process large numbers of requests on a
175 * Re-arranged the internal "core" request handling code, to
176 make a little more sense.
177 * Removed support for Replicate-To-Realm. Use radrelay.
178 * Print & parse unknown attributes as Attr-%d, Vendor-%d-Attr-%d,
179 or VendorName-Attr-%d.
180 * rlm_passwd is now marked "stable", and has many bugs fixed.
181 * More flexible configuration for rlm_ldap.
182 * New implementation of parser for Ascend's data filter
183 attributes, that is now thread-safe and GPL'd.
184 * Preliminary (not entirely complete) support for IPv6 attributes,
186 * Added support for rejected packets to run an Post-Auth-Type REJECT
187 stanza instead of skipping post-auth entirely.
188 * Added support for %{*:Packet-Type} translation. (Not for %{check:})
189 * Added support for %{check:Attribute-Name} to go with
190 %{request:Attribute-Name} and the like.
191 * Add support to rlm_sql for post-authentication query execution.
192 * Add support to rlm_sql for accounting_update_query_alt

223 the tag from tagged attributes.
224 * Bug fixes to thread handling from Malcolm Caldwell.

295 * rlm_passwd can now add items to the reply, request, or config items.
296 * The rlm_digest, rlm_exec, and rlm_ippool modules are now marked
297 as 'stable', and included in the default build.
298 * Removed 'raduse'. No one has used it for years.
299 * Massive fixes for Debian packaging.
300 * radclient can now send "disconnect" packets, to NASes which
301 support it. The server, however, CANNOT send disconnect packets.
302 * Made Auth-Type, Acct-Type, etc. names consistent across
303 dictionary files and radiusd.conf. The old (inconsistent) names
304 are still allowed for backwards compatibility.
305 * Cleaned up problems with the rlm_sql module.
306 * Updates to the rlm_ldap module.
307 * rlm_mschap no longer reads SMB password files. See rlm_passwd,

320 noted by Nathan Miller.
321 * Disable child process spawning if we don't have threads.
322 The code doesn't work, so it's better to force the server
323 to run in single-process mode.
324 * New rlm_exec module, which allows a more generic way of
325 executing external programs.
326 * Preliminary large file support in 'configure' and in the server,

389 * Removed all need for the old-style 'naslist' and 'client' files,
390 and noted that they are deprecated.
391 * Added support for Status-Server packets, stolen shamelessly
392 from Cistron RADIUSD. This is despite the RFC's saying such
394 * Bug fixes to rlm_dbm.
395 * Updates for checkrad, max40xx routine, from Aleksandr Kuzminsky.
396 * Disable caching of passwords for the Unix module. It was
397 causing too much confusion.

402 to multiple servers for one realm.
403 * Minor changes for better HPUX support.
404 * Updated the documentation and README's

417 be seen as clear-text where possible.
418 * radwho and radzap now read 'radiusd.conf' to discover where the
419 radutmp files are located. Patch from Andrea Gabellini.
420 * Preliminary 'expression' module, to allow you to do cool things
421 like: Session-Timeout = `%{expr:3600 - %{sql:SELECT ...}}`
422 * Added ability to do xlat on check items, and reply items,
423 so that the value of the reply attributes can be dynamically
425 * Added MIBs, taken from the RFC's. This makes SNMP queries to
426 the server a little easier to set up.
427 * Don't SEGV when we receive a packet which is larger than the

444 * Allow '{' and '}' in xlat'd strings.
445 * C++ compatibility patch from Andrey Kotrekhov, for libradius.
446 * Automatically decrypt/encrypt User-Password, so that debugging

471 CallBack-Number = `%{request:Calling-Station-Id}`
472 sets the value of the CallBack-Number attribute to the value of
473 the Calling-Station-Id in the original request.
474 * Cute hack: Allow regex matching on IP addresses, by placing
475 the string representation of the IP address (1.2.3.4) into
476 the internal data structure. This allows things like
477 NAS-IP-Address =~ "^192\.168", which may be useful.
478 * Add documentation for experimental rlm_dbm module.
479 * Added experimental Perl module.
480 * Added the relevant IETF RFC's (standards documents) to 'doc/rfc',

496 * Fix issues with MD4, MD5, SHA1, and use of OpenSSL
497 * Update rlm_x99_token module to compile.
499 FreeRADIUS 0.6.0 ; Date: Date: 2002/07/03 14:16:33 , urgency=high
501 * Many bug fixes. For explicit details, see:
502 http://www.freeradius.org/cvs-log/
503 * Change to the user/group specified in the config file in all
504 modes ( debug and daemon ).
505 * SQL sockets are rotated so that all are used, to prevent the
506 SQL server timing out and closing unused sockets. Patch from
508 * Sybase driver from mattias@nogui.se.
509 * Modules are now versioned.
510 * Delete garbage Proxy-Reply attributes sent by the home server
511 before performing our own reply.
512 * Fix race conditions when duplicate packets resulted in a request
513 being processed by two threads, at the same time.
514 * Add '-d' command-line option to radwho
515 Bug noted by Matthew Schumacher
516 * Corrected issue that when a home server never replied to a
517 proxied request, the server may die.
518 * In SQL, look in radcheck, if not found there, try radgroupcheck.
519 Patch from Thomas Jalsovsky.
520 * Set sql user name for ALIVE accounting packets, too.
521 Patch from Simon <lists@routemeister.net>.
522 * Use port-specific checking for realms, now that we can proxy to
523 different auth/acct servers for the same realms.
524 Patch from Eddie Stassen.
525 * Minor updates to encrypted tunnel passwords.
526 * Default 'run_dir' is now /var/run/radiusd, not var/run.
527 /var/run is writeable only by root, and radiusd may be run suid.
528 * Modules are now versioned, so that upgrading the server
529 ensures that the new modules are installed.
530 * Fix sql code, so that magic SQL characters don't get the
532 * Remove references to "UNKNOWN-NAS" in log messages.
533 * Properly handle fork() and obtaining child processes exit
534 status when using threads. (pthread is broken w.r.t. signals)
535 * Correct code which would send erroneous reject, when the reject
536 was delayed, and a new request came in.
537 * Fix race condition where proxied requests would sometimes never
538 be re-sent. Bug noted by Eddie Stassen.
539 * Corrected LDAP3 schema
540 * Implemented Digest authentication, as per IETF document
541 draft-sterman-aaa-sip-00.txt, to perform authentication against
543 * If no password or group files have been specified in the config,
544 use the standard system calls to find them, rather than giving
545 up. Patch from Steve Langasek.
546 * Return Proxy-State attributes in a delated Access-Reject
547 * Corrected 'session zap' logic, when an old and unused session
548 is deleted from the databases. Accounting packets with garbage
549 Client-IP-Address attributes should no longer be a problem.
550 * Bug fixed in LDAP attribute map, for MS-CHAP related attributes.
551 * Fixes to the EAP module to work better with XP.
552 * Support for MS-SQL, using the FreeTDS library,
554 * New operators =* and !*. See 'man 5 users' for details.
555 * Added translation for %{config:section.subsection.item}, to
556 allow run-time translation of internal configuration parameters.
557 * New rlm_sqlcounter module, to keep counters based on SQL data.
558 * Fix rlm_realm, to allow seperate proxying of accounting and
559 authentication requests.
560 * Bug fixes in PostgreSQL back-end, from Andrew Kukhta.
561 * Increase internal buffers, to allow large SQL query strings.
562 * Added debug level 3 (-xxx), where debug messages have time stamps.
563 * Fix 'radwho' to use the correct radutmp file, as found by
564 'configure' (but radwho still doesn't read radiusd.conf)
565 * Fix bugs in tunnel (tagged attribute) code, which would prevent
566 tagged attributes from being generated correctly in a packet.
567 * Build only 'stable' modules by default. Experimental modules
568 require --with-experimental-modules to be passed to 'configure'
569 * New module rlm_ippool, to do server-side IP pooling.
570 * Fix rlm_eap module for portability, to work on non-x86 platforms.
571 * Re-connect to the LDAP server if the connection idles out
572 * Increased the visibility of the warning messages when doing
574 * Fixed EAP module to use 16-bit integers, so that it will
575 work on big-endian architectures.
577 FreeRADIUS 0.5.0 ; Date: 2002/03/14 22:18:22, urgency=medium
579 * Many bug fixes. For explicit details, see:
580 http://www.freeradius.org/cvs-log/
581 * Added Foundry dictionary, from Thomas Keitel
582 * Fix a logic bug in the 'walk over request list' code, which
583 would sometimes result in a request being deleted while it
584 was still being processed. Found by Rainer Clasen
585 * New 'tuning' guide, for optimizing the server's speed.
586 * The default ports are now 1812/1813, which is the standard.
587 * Fix a bug which would hang the server when many SQL connections
588 were open. Found by Cvetan Ivanov <zezo@spnet.net>
589 * Updated MySQL schema, with sanity checks, based on a schema from
590 Thomas Huehn <huehn@eozaen.net>
591 * Added 'Aptis' (Nortel CVX) dictionary.
592 * Added Ipv6 attributes (as 'octets' type for now)
593 * 'xlat' capability for SQL, so other modules can do SQL queries.
594 * We don't need a shared secret for LOCAL realms.
595 * Added better description of internal variables.
596 * Configurable fail-over to DEFAULT realm. Sometimes we don't
597 want to use the DEFAULT realm, if all configured realms are
598 marked dead. From Rainer Clasen.
599 * new configuration items 'max_attributes' and 'reject_delay'
600 If the packet contains too many attributes, it can be rejected.
601 We can also delay sending an Access-Reject, which slows down
603 * Updates to redhat scripts and spec file, from Marko Myllynen.
604 * Python module (EXPERIMENTAL) from migs paraz <mparaz@yahoo.com>
605 * Add ability to find *best* match when comparing attributes.
606 If there is more than one attribute in a request and the first
607 one doesn't match, go check the second one, instead of failing.
608 * unixODBC support for SQL, from Dmitri Ageev <d_ageev@ortcc.ru>

625 * Added PAP authentication module, as a step to removing
626 most authentication handlers in other modules.
627 * Send a Access-Reject after max_request_time
628 * Multiple fixes in the LDAP module.
629 * Quintum dictionary by Jeremy McNamara <jj@indie.org>
630 * Preliminary EAP Module with MD5 support
631 Contributed by Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
632 * Better sanity checking for bad VSA's when receiving a packet
633 * new 'xlat register' so that attribute values may be pulled
634 out of configurable databases at run-time.
635 e.g. %{ldap:ldap:///dc=company,dc=com?uid?sub?uid=%u}
636 * Minor fixes to debian package rules
637 * Attribute 'Password' deprecated in favor of 'User-Password'.
638 * MS-CHAP and MS-CHAPv2 MPPE support added.
639 Contributed by Takahiro Wagatsuma <waga@sic.shibaura-it.ac.jp>.

642 -- Alan DeKok <aland@ox.org>
644 FreeRADIUS 0.4.0 ; urgency=low
646 * Allow the MS-CHAP module to work, and to read /etc/smbpass
647 3APA3A <3APA3A@SECURITY.NNOV.RU>
648 * Remove the server requirement that one of User-Password
649 or CHAP-Password exist when doing authentication. These
650 checks should be handled by the modules. This change
651 also prepares us for EAP.
652 Patch from Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
653 * Make NAS-Port-ID in radwho, raduse, etc. unsigned,
655 Patch from John Morrissey <jwm@horde.net>
656 * Allow \t and \n inside of configuration strings.
657 Frank Cusack <fcusack@fcusack.com>
658 * X9.9 Challenge-Response token card support.
659 For now, only CRYPTOCard tokens are supported.

664 * Fix memory leak in rlm_counter
665 Kostas Kalevras <kkalev@noc.ntua.gr>
666 * "LOCAL" realms do not need to have an entry in the 'clients'
667 file. Philippe Levan <levan@epix.net>
669 -- Alan DeKok <aland@ox.org>
671 FreeRADIUS 0.3.0 ; urgency=low
673 * Added ability to send debug messages to the log file, when
674 running in daemon mode.
675 * Miscellaneous fixes to get Debian packaging working.
676 * When trapping a signal, don't SIGKILL children on a SIGTERM,
677 SIGTERM them, instead. This allows Exec-Program scripts to
678 catch the signal, and finish processing, instead of dying.
679 Bug noted by Michael Chernyakhovsky <magmike@mail.ru>
680 * Increased limit on length of user name read from /etc/passwd,
681 to match the maximum allowed by RADIUS.
682 Bug noted by "Gonzalez B., Fernando" <fgonzalez@manquehue.cl>
683 * Configurable fail-over when proxying packets. If the
684 home server doesn't respond to a repeated proxied request,
685 it's marked as 'dead', and the next one in the list is used.
686 Patch by Eddie Stassen <eddies@saix.net> and <spirn@21cn.com>
687 * Pass Access-Challenge attributes through the server, in
689 Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
690 * More fixes for RFC compliance on the Message-Authenticator
691 Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
692 * Merged OSFC2/OSFSIA authentication patches from Cistron.

694 * IBM DB2 UDB V7.1 SQL driver, contributed by
695 Joerg Wendland <wendland@scan-plus.de>
696 * Fix the IP + Port address assignment.
697 Bug found by "John Padula" <john_padula@aviancommunications.com>

702 * Initialize variables properly in rlm_attr_filter.
703 Patch from Andriy I Pilipenko <bamby@marka.net.ua>
704 * Renamed RedHat init script from 'radiusd.init' to 'radiusd'.
705 This allows it to work properly with the RedHat rc system.
706 Patch from Christian Vogel <chris@amor.iksys.de>
707 * Fix the configure script checks for PostgreSQL, so that
708 they use the 'test' command properly.
709 Bug found by Robert Haskins <rhaskins@ziplink.net>
710 * Change instances of 'assert' to 'rad_assert', so that it
711 can log the error to the standard radius log files.
712 Patch from Vesselin Atanasov <vesselin@bgnet.bg>
713 * Patch to prevent segv when freeing results, from
714 Tomas Heredia <tomas@intermediasp.com>
715 * Added support for Exec-Program to acct. Bug found by
717 * Corrected rlm_files so that raddb/acct_users works

719 entries, so that the server doesn't eat CPU time.
720 Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
721 * Add primitive dictionary.nomadix <CBoyd@apogeetelecom.com>
722 * Log messages to console, if the logger hasn't been
723 initialized. <vesselin@bgnet.bg>
724 * Log invalid user for proxy rejects, too. <help@visp.net>
725 * Fixed Expiration attribute handling.
726 * Added code to handle Ascend-Send-Secret and Ascend-Receive-Secret
727 * Removed non thread-pool code. If we have threads, we now force
728 the use of thread pools.
729 * Update version number
730 * correct bug where proxied accounting packets would never have a
731 reply sent back to the NAS, or the reply would be sent twice.
733 -- Alan DeKok <aland@ox.org>
735 FreeRADIUS Alpha 0.2.0, July 30, 2001.
737 * call openlog() again when using PAM, to get the correct log
739 * Update child thread code, to minimize race conditions.

743 * Update proxying code to work better.
744 * Platform independent pthread_cancel()ling
745 * Fix 'unresponsive child pid' erroneous warning messages.
746 * Many changes to get various SQL modules working.
747 Note that there may still be some issues with Oracle.
748 * Added configure options 'with-rlm-FOO-include/lib-dir', so that
749 lower-level rlm_FOO modules can be configured via the top-level
750 configuration file. This isn't completely done yet.
751 * Fix check for shared library using libtool info, instead of
752 assuming extension being ".so".
753 * Fixes for HPUX. We probably need more.
754 * Many additional bug fixes and changes.
