To use it you need to create three config files. These -are the main config file "radsecproxy.conf" and server and client -files "servers.conf" and "clients.conf". See the enclosed example -files for further instructions. +radsecproxy is a generic RADIUS proxy that supports both UDP and TLS +(RadSec) RADIUS transports. There is also experimental support for +TCP and DTLS. -The config files must be in either "/etc/radsecproxy" or the -proxy's current work directory. You may alter the path near -the top of radsecproxy.h if necessary. +It should build on most Linux and BSD platforms by simply typing +"./configure && make". It is possible to specify which RADIUS +transport the build should support. Without any special options to +configure, all transports supported by the system will be enabled. +See the output from "configure --help" for how to change this. -There are two options that may be specified on the command line. -They are "-d loglevel" to set a loglevel of 1, 2 or 3 where 3 -is the most detailed logging. Also "-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. +Known build issues: +- Older BSD's (like NetBSD 4.x) need newer OpenSSL in order to support + DTLS. Workaround: ./configure --disable-dtls. +- FreeBSD 6.x needs newer OpenSSL to build at all. -For more information, feedback etc. contact . +To use radsecproxy you need to create a config file which normally is +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 +documentation at +http://software.uninett.no/radsecproxy/?page=documentation -Stig Venaas, 2007.05.07 +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, 4 and 5 where 5 is the + most detailed. +"-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. +"-v" just prints version information and exits. +"-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.
