5 * Faster client lookups, to permit scaling to 10^6 or more clients.
6 * Removed radrelay and radsqlrelay. See "man radrelay.conf" for
8 * Full IPv6 support. The server can listen on IPv6 sockets,
9 and send/receive IPv6 packets.
10 * rlm_ns_mta_md5 is deprecated. rlm_pap does everything it does,
12 * The command-line options "-i ipaddr" and "-p port" now work.
13 * rlm_unix no longer reads /etc/passwd (etc.) directly. See

16 * Configuration files now use binary trees, which means that
17 arbitrary amounts of information can be stored in them.
18 * Fixed xlat's for %{config:...}. Dynamic expanstion now works
19 better, so %{config:section.subsection.%{User-Name}.item" works,
20 even if the User-Name contains periods. This is a cheap way
21 of getting in-memory databases, as anything can be put into
22 the configuration files.
23 * Fix locking issues for radrelay.
24 * Add radsqlrelay, which works like radrelay, but reads data
26 * rlm_ldap now auto-discovers password headers. See the "ldap"

102 * EAP module configuration is now in "raddb/eap.conf", as it was
104 * Updated GPL boilerplate in the source.
105 * Added new RFC's to doc/rfc/
106 * Added more "man" pages for many of the modules. Many of the
107 'doc/rlm_*' files have been deleted, and replaced with 'man' pages.
108 * Added many new dictionaries: 3GPP, 3GPP2, Propel, Karlnet,
109 Sonicwall, Navini, Bristol University, Valemont, Mikrotik.
110 * doc/configurable_failover is now understandable by mere humans.
111 * Update scripts/rc.radiusd with examples of how to deal with
112 shared library issues.

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

189 EAP-module feature improvements
190 * Allow checking of EAP identity against certificate.
191 * EAP-TLS now checks Certificate Revocation List
192 * Added EAP-TTLS support in rlm_eap. Tested with many clients,
193 and with tunneled PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP, MSCHAPv2, EAP-MD5,
194 EAP-MSCHAPv2, and EAP-GTC.
195 * Added EAP-PEAP support, with tunneled EAP-MSCHAP-V2, and EAP-GTC.

198 * Enabled proxying of the authentication request which is tunneled
199 inside of PEAP and TTLS.
202 * Add support to checkrad.pl for mikrotik-brand NASs over SNMP
203 * Added rlm_ippool_tool, by Edwin Groothuis.
204 * Updates to radclient, so that you can specify multiple '-f'
205 options, and it will send those packets in parallel. This
206 allows for significantly higher packet rates when load testing.
209 * Fix a bug in the attr_filter module, which would throw away
210 the tag from tagged attributes.
211 * Bug fixes to thread handling from Malcolm Caldwell.

282 * rlm_passwd can now add items to the reply, request, or config items.
283 * The rlm_digest, rlm_exec, and rlm_ippool modules are now marked
284 as 'stable', and included in the default build.
285 * Removed 'raduse'. No one has used it for years.
286 * Massive fixes for Debian packaging.
287 * radclient can now send "disconnect" packets, to NASes which
288 support it. The server, however, CANNOT send disconnect packets.
289 * Made Auth-Type, Acct-Type, etc. names consistent across
290 dictionary files and radiusd.conf. The old (inconsistent) names
291 are still allowed for backwards compatibility.
292 * Cleaned up problems with the rlm_sql module.
293 * Updates to the rlm_ldap module.
294 * rlm_mschap no longer reads SMB password files. See rlm_passwd,

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

404 be seen as clear-text where possible.
405 * radwho and radzap now read 'radiusd.conf' to discover where the
406 radutmp files are located. Patch from Andrea Gabellini.
407 * Preliminary 'expression' module, to allow you to do cool things
408 like: Session-Timeout = `%{expr:3600 - %{sql:SELECT ...}}`
409 * Added ability to do xlat on check items, and reply items,
410 so that the value of the reply attributes can be dynamically
412 * Added MIBs, taken from the RFC's. This makes SNMP queries to
413 the server a little easier to set up.

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

497 * Delete garbage Proxy-Reply attributes sent by the home server
498 before performing our own reply.
499 * Fix race conditions when duplicate packets resulted in a request
500 being processed by two threads, at the same time.
501 * Add '-d' command-line option to radwho
502 Bug noted by Matthew Schumacher
503 * Corrected issue that when a home server never replied to a
504 proxied request, the server may die.
505 * In SQL, look in radcheck, if not found there, try radgroupcheck.
506 Patch from Thomas Jalsovsky.
507 * Set sql user name for ALIVE accounting packets, too.
508 Patch from Simon <lists@routemeister.net>.
509 * Use port-specific checking for realms, now that we can proxy to
510 different auth/acct servers for the same realms.
511 Patch from Eddie Stassen.
512 * Minor updates to encrypted tunnel passwords.
513 * Default 'run_dir' is now /var/run/radiusd, not var/run.
514 /var/run is writeable only by root, and radiusd may be run suid.
515 * Modules are now versioned, so that upgrading the server
516 ensures that the new modules are installed.
517 * Fix sql code, so that magic SQL characters don't get the
519 * Remove references to "UNKNOWN-NAS" in log messages.
520 * Properly handle fork() and obtaining child processes exit
521 status when using threads. (pthread is broken w.r.t. signals)
522 * Correct code which would send erroneous reject, when the reject
523 was delayed, and a new request came in.
524 * Fix race condition where proxied requests would sometimes never
525 be re-sent. Bug noted by Eddie Stassen.
526 * Corrected LDAP3 schema
527 * Implemented Digest authentication, as per IETF document
528 draft-sterman-aaa-sip-00.txt, to perform authentication against
530 * If no password or group files have been specified in the config,
531 use the standard system calls to find them, rather than giving
532 up. Patch from Steve Langasek.
533 * Return Proxy-State attributes in a delated Access-Reject
534 * Corrected 'session zap' logic, when an old and unused session
535 is deleted from the databases. Accounting packets with garbage
536 Client-IP-Address attributes should no longer be a problem.
537 * Bug fixed in LDAP attribute map, for MS-CHAP related attributes.
538 * Fixes to the EAP module to work better with XP.
539 * Support for MS-SQL, using the FreeTDS library,
541 * New operators =* and !*. See 'man 5 users' for details.
542 * Added translation for %{config:section.subsection.item}, to
543 allow run-time translation of internal configuration parameters.
544 * New rlm_sqlcounter module, to keep counters based on SQL data.
545 * Fix rlm_realm, to allow seperate proxying of accounting and
546 authentication requests.
547 * Bug fixes in PostgreSQL back-end, from Andrew Kukhta.
548 * Increase internal buffers, to allow large SQL query strings.
549 * Added debug level 3 (-xxx), where debug messages have time stamps.
550 * Fix 'radwho' to use the correct radutmp file, as found by
551 'configure' (but radwho still doesn't read radiusd.conf)
552 * Fix bugs in tunnel (tagged attribute) code, which would prevent
553 tagged attributes from being generated correctly in a packet.
554 * Build only 'stable' modules by default. Experimental modules
555 require --with-experimental-modules to be passed to 'configure'
556 * New module rlm_ippool, to do server-side IP pooling.
557 * Fix rlm_eap module for portability, to work on non-x86 platforms.
558 * Re-connect to the LDAP server if the connection idles out
559 * Increased the visibility of the warning messages when doing
561 * Fixed EAP module to use 16-bit integers, so that it will
562 work on big-endian architectures.
564 FreeRADIUS 0.5.0 ; Date: 2002/03/14 22:18:22, urgency=medium

567 http://www.freeradius.org/cvs-log/
568 * Added Foundry dictionary, from Thomas Keitel
569 * Fix a logic bug in the 'walk over request list' code, which
570 would sometimes result in a request being deleted while it
571 was still being processed. Found by Rainer Clasen
572 * New 'tuning' guide, for optimizing the server's speed.
573 * The default ports are now 1812/1813, which is the standard.

575 were open. Found by Cvetan Ivanov <zezo@spnet.net>
576 * Updated MySQL schema, with sanity checks, based on a schema from
577 Thomas Huehn <huehn@eozaen.net>
578 * Added 'Aptis' (Nortel CVX) dictionary.
579 * Added Ipv6 attributes (as 'octets' type for now)
580 * 'xlat' capability for SQL, so other modules can do SQL queries.
581 * We don't need a shared secret for LOCAL realms.
582 * Added better description of internal variables.
583 * Configurable fail-over to DEFAULT realm. Sometimes we don't
584 want to use the DEFAULT realm, if all configured realms are
585 marked dead. From Rainer Clasen.
586 * new configuration items 'max_attributes' and 'reject_delay'
587 If the packet contains too many attributes, it can be rejected.
588 We can also delay sending an Access-Reject, which slows down
590 * Updates to redhat scripts and spec file, from Marko Myllynen.
591 * Python module (EXPERIMENTAL) from migs paraz <mparaz@yahoo.com>
592 * Add ability to find *best* match when comparing attributes.
593 If there is more than one attribute in a request and the first
594 one doesn't match, go check the second one, instead of failing.
595 * unixODBC support for SQL, from Dmitri Ageev <d_ageev@ortcc.ru>
596 * Use thread-safe versions of library calls. This work is still
598 * New rlm_passwd module, to allow general parsing of passwd-style
600 * Preliminary EAP-TLS support.
601 * Updated LDAPv3 schema
602 * Correct checks for Odbc, and fix bugs in the module.
603 Andreas Kainz <aka@maxxio.at>

610 * fgetpwent() compatibility, for systems without it,
611 from Daniel Carroll <freeradius@defiant.mesastate.edu>
612 * Added PAP authentication module, as a step to removing
613 most authentication handlers in other modules.
614 * Send a Access-Reject after max_request_time
615 * Multiple fixes in the LDAP module.
616 * Quintum dictionary by Jeremy McNamara <jj@indie.org>
617 * Preliminary EAP Module with MD5 support
618 Contributed by Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
619 * Better sanity checking for bad VSA's when receiving a packet
620 * new 'xlat register' so that attribute values may be pulled
621 out of configurable databases at run-time.
622 e.g. %{ldap:ldap:///dc=company,dc=com?uid?sub?uid=%u}
623 * Minor fixes to debian package rules
624 * Attribute 'Password' deprecated in favor of 'User-Password'.
625 * MS-CHAP and MS-CHAPv2 MPPE support added.
626 Contributed by Takahiro Wagatsuma <waga@sic.shibaura-it.ac.jp>.
627 * X9.9 token enhancements (several).
629 -- Alan DeKok <aland@ox.org>
631 FreeRADIUS 0.4.0 ; urgency=low
633 * Allow the MS-CHAP module to work, and to read /etc/smbpass
634 3APA3A <3APA3A@SECURITY.NNOV.RU>
635 * Remove the server requirement that one of User-Password
636 or CHAP-Password exist when doing authentication. These
637 checks should be handled by the modules. This change
638 also prepares us for EAP.
639 Patch from Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
640 * Make NAS-Port-ID in radwho, raduse, etc. unsigned,
642 Patch from John Morrissey <jwm@horde.net>
643 * Allow \t and \n inside of configuration strings.
644 Frank Cusack <fcusack@fcusack.com>
645 * X9.9 Challenge-Response token card support.
646 For now, only CRYPTOCard tokens are supported.

652 Kostas Kalevras <kkalev@noc.ntua.gr>
653 * "LOCAL" realms do not need to have an entry in the 'clients'
654 file. Philippe Levan <levan@epix.net>
656 -- Alan DeKok <aland@ox.org>
658 FreeRADIUS 0.3.0 ; urgency=low
660 * Added ability to send debug messages to the log file, when
661 running in daemon mode.
662 * Miscellaneous fixes to get Debian packaging working.
663 * When trapping a signal, don't SIGKILL children on a SIGTERM,
664 SIGTERM them, instead. This allows Exec-Program scripts to
665 catch the signal, and finish processing, instead of dying.
666 Bug noted by Michael Chernyakhovsky <magmike@mail.ru>
667 * Increased limit on length of user name read from /etc/passwd,
668 to match the maximum allowed by RADIUS.
669 Bug noted by "Gonzalez B., Fernando" <fgonzalez@manquehue.cl>
670 * Configurable fail-over when proxying packets. If the
671 home server doesn't respond to a repeated proxied request,
672 it's marked as 'dead', and the next one in the list is used.
673 Patch by Eddie Stassen <eddies@saix.net> and <spirn@21cn.com>
674 * Pass Access-Challenge attributes through the server, in
676 Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
677 * More fixes for RFC compliance on the Message-Authenticator
678 Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
679 * Merged OSFC2/OSFSIA authentication patches from Cistron.
680 (Bug # 104) The patches are not well tested, however.
681 * IBM DB2 UDB V7.1 SQL driver, contributed by
682 Joerg Wendland <wendland@scan-plus.de>
683 * Fix the IP + Port address assignment.
684 Bug found by "John Padula" <john_padula@aviancommunications.com>
685 * Patch to avoid smashing the contents of Ascend binary filters.
686 Michael Chernyakhovsky <magmike@mail.ru>

689 * Initialize variables properly in rlm_attr_filter.
690 Patch from Andriy I Pilipenko <bamby@marka.net.ua>
691 * Renamed RedHat init script from 'radiusd.init' to 'radiusd'.
692 This allows it to work properly with the RedHat rc system.
693 Patch from Christian Vogel <chris@amor.iksys.de>
694 * Fix the configure script checks for PostgreSQL, so that
695 they use the 'test' command properly.
696 Bug found by Robert Haskins <rhaskins@ziplink.net>
697 * Change instances of 'assert' to 'rad_assert', so that it
698 can log the error to the standard radius log files.
699 Patch from Vesselin Atanasov <vesselin@bgnet.bg>
700 * Patch to prevent segv when freeing results, from
701 Tomas Heredia <tomas@intermediasp.com>
702 * Added support for Exec-Program to acct. Bug found by
704 * Corrected rlm_files so that raddb/acct_users works

706 entries, so that the server doesn't eat CPU time.
707 Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
708 * Add primitive dictionary.nomadix <CBoyd@apogeetelecom.com>
709 * Log messages to console, if the logger hasn't been
710 initialized. <vesselin@bgnet.bg>
711 * Log invalid user for proxy rejects, too. <help@visp.net>
712 * Fixed Expiration attribute handling.
713 * Added code to handle Ascend-Send-Secret and Ascend-Receive-Secret
714 * Removed non thread-pool code. If we have threads, we now force
715 the use of thread pools.
716 * Update version number
717 * correct bug where proxied accounting packets would never have a
718 reply sent back to the NAS, or the reply would be sent twice.
720 -- Alan DeKok <aland@ox.org>
722 FreeRADIUS Alpha 0.2.0, July 30, 2001.
724 * call openlog() again when using PAM, to get the correct log
726 * Update child thread code, to minimize race conditions.
727 * Make thread pools the default. Using plain child threads is NOT

730 * Update proxying code to work better.
731 * Platform independent pthread_cancel()ling
732 * Fix 'unresponsive child pid' erroneous warning messages.
733 * Many changes to get various SQL modules working.
734 Note that there may still be some issues with Oracle.
735 * Added configure options 'with-rlm-FOO-include/lib-dir', so that
736 lower-level rlm_FOO modules can be configured via the top-level
737 configuration file. This isn't completely done yet.
738 * Fix check for shared library using libtool info, instead of
739 assuming extension being ".so".
740 * Fixes for HPUX. We probably need more.
741 * Many additional bug fixes and changes.
