3 * rlm_unix no longer reads /etc/passwd (etc.) directly. See
4 "man rlm_unix" for details. Also see the "authorize" section
6 * Configuration files now use binary trees, which means that
7 arbitrary amounts of information can be stored in them.
8 * Fixed xlat's for %{config:...}. Dynamic expanstion now works

114 * Many, many minor bug fixes and feature enhancements.
115 * Added "reject" action in configurable failover for modules
116 * Added a "listen" directive, which supersedes the old

118 finer-grained control over what IP's, ports, and packets the
119 server pays attention to.
120 * The proxy code has been updated to work properly, and to
121 allocate new sockets for proxying packets when there are more
122 than 256 requests outstanding to a home server. Many thanks

126 * added ability for mschap module to use ntlm_auth, to perform
127 MS-CHAPv1 and MS-CHAPv2 authentication against a Windows
129 * Check return value from registered xlat functions. If return
130 value is 0, treat the attribute as not found. This lets things
131 like %{sql: select... :-FAILED} work.
132 * Realms can now be configured to ignore DEFAULT and NULL
133 realms. This makes prefix/suffix realms co-exists a little
135 * Added red-black tree implementation to src/lib. The
136 dictionaries now use it, rather than singly linked lists. Tests
137 indicate that the server is up to 30% faster.
138 * Updated MSCHAP module to be able to better deal with Windows
139 machines which put a username with domain into User-Name, but
140 which use only the username to create the MS-CHAP-Response.
141 * Made "hints" file more generic and flexible, without changing
143 * Enhanced configuration file variable handling. See
144 doc/variables.txt for details.
145 * Checks for OpenSSL now enforce version number, and are common
146 across all modules, rather than being duplicated.

148 LVS. Code from Jan Berkel and Miquel van Smoorenburg. To use
149 it, do: ./configure --with-udpfromto=yes
150 * Re-arranged "walk over cached requests" code for clarity.
151 * The server now keeps more SNMP statistics about the packets it
153 * De-coupled the queue of input requests from the pool of threads.
154 This allows "spikes" of requests to be queued, even though all
155 threads are busy. This change significantly increases the
156 servers ability to process large numbers of requests on a
158 * Re-arranged the internal "core" request handling code, to
159 make a little more sense.
160 * Removed support for Replicate-To-Realm. Use radrelay.

162 or VendorName-Attr-%d.
163 * rlm_passwd is now marked "stable", and has many bugs fixed.
164 * More flexible configuration for rlm_ldap.
165 * New implementation of parser for Ascend's data filter
166 attributes, that is now thread-safe and GPL'd.
167 * Preliminary (not entirely complete) support for IPv6 attributes,
169 * Added support for rejected packets to run an Post-Auth-Type REJECT
170 stanza instead of skipping post-auth entirely.
171 * Added support for %{*:Packet-Type} translation. (Not for %{check:})
172 * Added support for %{check:Attribute-Name} to go with
173 %{request:Attribute-Name} and the like.

206 the tag from tagged attributes.
207 * Bug fixes to thread handling from Malcolm Caldwell.

281 * Removed 'raduse'. No one has used it for years.
282 * Massive fixes for Debian packaging.
283 * radclient can now send "disconnect" packets, to NASes which
284 support it. The server, however, CANNOT send disconnect packets.
285 * Made Auth-Type, Acct-Type, etc. names consistent across

303 noted by Nathan Miller.
304 * Disable child process spawning if we don't have threads.
305 The code doesn't work, so it's better to force the server
306 to run in single-process mode.
307 * New rlm_exec module, which allows a more generic way of
308 executing external programs.
309 * Preliminary large file support in 'configure' and in the server,

403 * Preliminary 'expression' module, to allow you to do cool things
404 like: Session-Timeout = `%{expr:3600 - %{sql:SELECT ...}}`
405 * Added ability to do xlat on check items, and reply items,
406 so that the value of the reply attributes can be dynamically
408 * Added MIBs, taken from the RFC's. This makes SNMP queries to

455 sets the value of the CallBack-Number attribute to the value of
456 the Calling-Station-Id in the original request.
457 * Cute hack: Allow regex matching on IP addresses, by placing
458 the string representation of the IP address (1.2.3.4) into
459 the internal data structure. This allows things like
460 NAS-IP-Address =~ "^192\.168", which may be useful.
461 * Add documentation for experimental rlm_dbm module.
462 * Added experimental Perl module.
463 * Added the relevant IETF RFC's (standards documents) to 'doc/rfc',

497 * Add '-d' command-line option to radwho
498 Bug noted by Matthew Schumacher
499 * Corrected issue that when a home server never replied to a
500 proxied request, the server may die.
501 * In SQL, look in radcheck, if not found there, try radgroupcheck.
502 Patch from Thomas Jalsovsky.
503 * Set sql user name for ALIVE accounting packets, too.
504 Patch from Simon <lists@routemeister.net>.
505 * Use port-specific checking for realms, now that we can proxy to
506 different auth/acct servers for the same realms.
507 Patch from Eddie Stassen.
508 * Minor updates to encrypted tunnel passwords.
509 * Default 'run_dir' is now /var/run/radiusd, not var/run.
510 /var/run is writeable only by root, and radiusd may be run suid.
511 * Modules are now versioned, so that upgrading the server
512 ensures that the new modules are installed.
513 * Fix sql code, so that magic SQL characters don't get the
515 * Remove references to "UNKNOWN-NAS" in log messages.
516 * Properly handle fork() and obtaining child processes exit
517 status when using threads. (pthread is broken w.r.t. signals)
518 * Correct code which would send erroneous reject, when the reject
519 was delayed, and a new request came in.
520 * Fix race condition where proxied requests would sometimes never
521 be re-sent. Bug noted by Eddie Stassen.
522 * Corrected LDAP3 schema
523 * Implemented Digest authentication, as per IETF document
524 draft-sterman-aaa-sip-00.txt, to perform authentication against
526 * If no password or group files have been specified in the config,
527 use the standard system calls to find them, rather than giving
528 up. Patch from Steve Langasek.
529 * Return Proxy-State attributes in a delated Access-Reject
530 * Corrected 'session zap' logic, when an old and unused session
531 is deleted from the databases. Accounting packets with garbage
532 Client-IP-Address attributes should no longer be a problem.
533 * Bug fixed in LDAP attribute map, for MS-CHAP related attributes.
534 * Fixes to the EAP module to work better with XP.
535 * Support for MS-SQL, using the FreeTDS library,
537 * New operators =* and !*. See 'man 5 users' for details.
538 * Added translation for %{config:section.subsection.item}, to
539 allow run-time translation of internal configuration parameters.
540 * New rlm_sqlcounter module, to keep counters based on SQL data.
541 * Fix rlm_realm, to allow seperate proxying of accounting and
542 authentication requests.
543 * Bug fixes in PostgreSQL back-end, from Andrew Kukhta.
544 * Increase internal buffers, to allow large SQL query strings.
545 * Added debug level 3 (-xxx), where debug messages have time stamps.
546 * Fix 'radwho' to use the correct radutmp file, as found by
547 'configure' (but radwho still doesn't read radiusd.conf)
548 * Fix bugs in tunnel (tagged attribute) code, which would prevent
549 tagged attributes from being generated correctly in a packet.
550 * Build only 'stable' modules by default. Experimental modules
551 require --with-experimental-modules to be passed to 'configure'
552 * New module rlm_ippool, to do server-side IP pooling.
553 * Fix rlm_eap module for portability, to work on non-x86 platforms.
554 * Re-connect to the LDAP server if the connection idles out
555 * Increased the visibility of the warning messages when doing
557 * Fixed EAP module to use 16-bit integers, so that it will
558 work on big-endian architectures.
560 FreeRADIUS 0.5.0 ; Date: 2002/03/14 22:18:22, urgency=medium
562 * Many bug fixes. For explicit details, see:
563 http://www.freeradius.org/cvs-log/
564 * Added Foundry dictionary, from Thomas Keitel
565 * Fix a logic bug in the 'walk over request list' code, which
566 would sometimes result in a request being deleted while it
567 was still being processed. Found by Rainer Clasen
568 * New 'tuning' guide, for optimizing the server's speed.
569 * The default ports are now 1812/1813, which is the standard.
570 * Fix a bug which would hang the server when many SQL connections
571 were open. Found by Cvetan Ivanov <zezo@spnet.net>
572 * Updated MySQL schema, with sanity checks, based on a schema from
573 Thomas Huehn <huehn@eozaen.net>
574 * Added 'Aptis' (Nortel CVX) dictionary.
575 * Added Ipv6 attributes (as 'octets' type for now)
576 * 'xlat' capability for SQL, so other modules can do SQL queries.
577 * We don't need a shared secret for LOCAL realms.
578 * Added better description of internal variables.
579 * Configurable fail-over to DEFAULT realm. Sometimes we don't
580 want to use the DEFAULT realm, if all configured realms are
581 marked dead. From Rainer Clasen.
582 * new configuration items 'max_attributes' and 'reject_delay'
583 If the packet contains too many attributes, it can be rejected.
584 We can also delay sending an Access-Reject, which slows down
586 * Updates to redhat scripts and spec file, from Marko Myllynen.
587 * Python module (EXPERIMENTAL) from migs paraz <mparaz@yahoo.com>
588 * Add ability to find *best* match when comparing attributes.
589 If there is more than one attribute in a request and the first
590 one doesn't match, go check the second one, instead of failing.
591 * unixODBC support for SQL, from Dmitri Ageev <d_ageev@ortcc.ru>
592 * Use thread-safe versions of library calls. This work is still
594 * New rlm_passwd module, to allow general parsing of passwd-style
596 * Preliminary EAP-TLS support.
597 * Updated LDAPv3 schema
598 * Correct checks for Odbc, and fix bugs in the module.
599 Andreas Kainz <aka@maxxio.at>

602 * Password = "UNIX" or "PAM" backwards compatibility removed.
603 * Use the operators in the SQL schema and queries, and bug
604 fixes in the SQL module.
605 Randy Moore <ramoore@axion-it.net>
606 * fgetpwent() compatibility, for systems without it,
607 from Daniel Carroll <freeradius@defiant.mesastate.edu>
608 * Added PAP authentication module, as a step to removing
609 most authentication handlers in other modules.
610 * Send a Access-Reject after max_request_time
611 * Multiple fixes in the LDAP module.
612 * Quintum dictionary by Jeremy McNamara <jj@indie.org>
613 * Preliminary EAP Module with MD5 support
614 Contributed by Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
615 * Better sanity checking for bad VSA's when receiving a packet
616 * new 'xlat register' so that attribute values may be pulled
617 out of configurable databases at run-time.
618 e.g. %{ldap:ldap:///dc=company,dc=com?uid?sub?uid=%u}
619 * Minor fixes to debian package rules
620 * Attribute 'Password' deprecated in favor of 'User-Password'.
621 * MS-CHAP and MS-CHAPv2 MPPE support added.
622 Contributed by Takahiro Wagatsuma <waga@sic.shibaura-it.ac.jp>.
623 * X9.9 token enhancements (several).
625 -- Alan DeKok <aland@ox.org>
627 FreeRADIUS 0.4.0 ; urgency=low
629 * Allow the MS-CHAP module to work, and to read /etc/smbpass
630 3APA3A <3APA3A@SECURITY.NNOV.RU>
631 * Remove the server requirement that one of User-Password
632 or CHAP-Password exist when doing authentication. These
633 checks should be handled by the modules. This change
634 also prepares us for EAP.
635 Patch from Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
636 * Make NAS-Port-ID in radwho, raduse, etc. unsigned,
638 Patch from John Morrissey <jwm@horde.net>
639 * Allow \t and \n inside of configuration strings.
640 Frank Cusack <fcusack@fcusack.com>
641 * X9.9 Challenge-Response token card support.
642 For now, only CRYPTOCard tokens are supported.
643 Frank Cusack <fcusack@fcusack.com>
644 * Fix core dump on Solaris in radwho.c
645 Patch from Eddie Stassen <eddies@saix.net>
646 * Fix leak / core dump in Oracle module.
647 * Fix memory leak in rlm_counter
648 Kostas Kalevras <kkalev@noc.ntua.gr>
649 * "LOCAL" realms do not need to have an entry in the 'clients'
650 file. Philippe Levan <levan@epix.net>
652 -- Alan DeKok <aland@ox.org>
654 FreeRADIUS 0.3.0 ; urgency=low
656 * Added ability to send debug messages to the log file, when
657 running in daemon mode.
658 * Miscellaneous fixes to get Debian packaging working.
659 * When trapping a signal, don't SIGKILL children on a SIGTERM,
660 SIGTERM them, instead. This allows Exec-Program scripts to
661 catch the signal, and finish processing, instead of dying.
662 Bug noted by Michael Chernyakhovsky <magmike@mail.ru>
663 * Increased limit on length of user name read from /etc/passwd,
664 to match the maximum allowed by RADIUS.
665 Bug noted by "Gonzalez B., Fernando" <fgonzalez@manquehue.cl>
666 * Configurable fail-over when proxying packets. If the
667 home server doesn't respond to a repeated proxied request,
668 it's marked as 'dead', and the next one in the list is used.
669 Patch by Eddie Stassen <eddies@saix.net> and <spirn@21cn.com>
670 * Pass Access-Challenge attributes through the server, in
672 Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
673 * More fixes for RFC compliance on the Message-Authenticator
674 Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
675 * Merged OSFC2/OSFSIA authentication patches from Cistron.
676 (Bug # 104) The patches are not well tested, however.
677 * IBM DB2 UDB V7.1 SQL driver, contributed by
678 Joerg Wendland <wendland@scan-plus.de>
679 * Fix the IP + Port address assignment.
680 Bug found by "John Padula" <john_padula@aviancommunications.com>
681 * Patch to avoid smashing the contents of Ascend binary filters.
682 Michael Chernyakhovsky <magmike@mail.ru>
683 * Create and Validate Message-Authenticator attribute, in
685 * Initialize variables properly in rlm_attr_filter.
686 Patch from Andriy I Pilipenko <bamby@marka.net.ua>
687 * Renamed RedHat init script from 'radiusd.init' to 'radiusd'.
688 This allows it to work properly with the RedHat rc system.
689 Patch from Christian Vogel <chris@amor.iksys.de>
690 * Fix the configure script checks for PostgreSQL, so that
691 they use the 'test' command properly.
692 Bug found by Robert Haskins <rhaskins@ziplink.net>
693 * Change instances of 'assert' to 'rad_assert', so that it
694 can log the error to the standard radius log files.
695 Patch from Vesselin Atanasov <vesselin@bgnet.bg>
696 * Patch to prevent segv when freeing results, from
697 Tomas Heredia <tomas@intermediasp.com>
698 * Added support for Exec-Program to acct. Bug found by
700 * Corrected rlm_files so that raddb/acct_users works
701 * When doing synchronous proxying, update proxy next try
702 entries, so that the server doesn't eat CPU time.
703 Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
704 * Add primitive dictionary.nomadix <CBoyd@apogeetelecom.com>
705 * Log messages to console, if the logger hasn't been
706 initialized. <vesselin@bgnet.bg>
707 * Log invalid user for proxy rejects, too. <help@visp.net>
708 * Fixed Expiration attribute handling.
709 * Added code to handle Ascend-Send-Secret and Ascend-Receive-Secret
710 * Removed non thread-pool code. If we have threads, we now force
711 the use of thread pools.
712 * Update version number
713 * correct bug where proxied accounting packets would never have a
714 reply sent back to the NAS, or the reply would be sent twice.
716 -- Alan DeKok <aland@ox.org>
718 FreeRADIUS Alpha 0.2.0, July 30, 2001.
720 * call openlog() again when using PAM, to get the correct log
722 * Update child thread code, to minimize race conditions.
723 * Make thread pools the default. Using plain child threads is NOT
725 * Ignore SIGPIPE to get ride of crashes when using ldap.
726 * Update proxying code to work better.
727 * Platform independent pthread_cancel()ling
728 * Fix 'unresponsive child pid' erroneous warning messages.
729 * Many changes to get various SQL modules working.
730 Note that there may still be some issues with Oracle.
731 * Added configure options 'with-rlm-FOO-include/lib-dir', so that
732 lower-level rlm_FOO modules can be configured via the top-level
733 configuration file. This isn't completely done yet.
734 * Fix check for shared library using libtool info, instead of
735 assuming extension being ".so".
736 * Fixes for HPUX. We probably need more.
737 * Many additional bug fixes and changes.
