radsecproxy is a generic RADIUS proxy that can support various
RADIUS clients over UDP or TLS (RadSec).
It should build on most Linux and BSD platforms by simply typing
-"make". You may also try to use autoconf, but this is currently
-unsupported.
+"make". You may also try to use autoconf. It is possible to
+specify which RADIUS transport the build should support. With
+just doing "make" one will support only UDP and TLS. See the
+Makefile for how to change this. With autoconf (configure) there
+will normally be support for all transport. You can use the
+configure options --enable-udp, --enable-tcp, --enable-tls and
+--enable-dtls where each of them may be set to yes or no to
+enable or disable them.
To use it you need to create a config file which normally is
-called "/etc/radsecproxy.conf". If this is not found, the
-proxy will look for radsecproxy.conf in the current directory.
-You can also specify the location with the "-c" command line
-option (see below). For further instructions, please see the
-enclosed example file and the documentation at
+called "/etc/radsecproxy.conf". You can also specify the location
+with the "-c" command line option (see below). For further
+instructions, please see the enclosed example file and the

-There are four options that may be specified on the command line.
+There are five options that may be specified on the command line.
"-c configfile" to specify a non-default config file path;
"-d loglevel" to set a loglevel of 1, 2, 3 or 4 where 4 is the most
detailed; and "-f" to run the proxy in the foreground with logging
to stderr. Without "-f" the default is to detach as a daemon and
-log to syslog. Finally "-v" just prints version information and
-exits.
+log to syslog. "-v" just prints version information and exits, while
+"-p" (pretend) makes the proxy go through the configuration files as
+normal, but stops before creating any sockets or doing any serious
+work. This is useful for validating config files.

+Thanks to Stefan Winter and Andreas Solberg for talking me into
+doing this, and the funding from GEANT2. Stefan as well as Kolbjørn
+Barmen, Ralf Paffrath and Maja Wolniewicz have helped with early
+testing of the code.

All of the above plus Milan Sova have provided good feedback on
several implementation choices. Finally thanks to Hans Zandbelt
for providing the autoconf stuff. I may have forgotten someone,
