1 FreeRADIUS 2.0.0 ; $Date$, urgency=low
2 * Fix fd leak in rlm_otp.
3 * Use Cleartext-Password for "known good" password in config items,
4 rather than "User-Password". This should solve a lot of problems.
5 * Define Password-With-Header for LDAP-style "{crypt}...." passwords,
6 to avoid overloading User-Password.
7 * Permit per-socket list of clients in "listen" directives
8 * Faster client lookups, to permit scaling to 10^6 or more clients.
9 * Removed radrelay and radsqlrelay. See "man radrelay.conf" for
11 * Full IPv6 support. The server can listen on IPv6 sockets,
12 and send/receive IPv6 packets.
13 * rlm_ns_mta_md5 is deprecated. rlm_pap does everything it does,
15 * The command-line options "-i ipaddr" and "-p port" now work.
16 * rlm_unix no longer reads /etc/passwd (etc.) directly. See
17 "man rlm_unix" for details. Also see the "authorize" section
19 * Configuration files now use binary trees, which means that
20 arbitrary amounts of information can be stored in them.
21 * Fixed xlat's for %{config:...}. Dynamic expanstion now works
22 better, so %{config:section.subsection.%{User-Name}.item" works,
23 even if the User-Name contains periods. This is a cheap way
24 of getting in-memory databases, as anything can be put into
25 the configuration files.
26 * Fix locking issues for radrelay.
27 * Add radsqlrelay, which works like radrelay, but reads data
29 * rlm_ldap now auto-discovers password headers. See the "ldap"
30 subsection of "modules", in "radiusd.conf" for details.
31 * rlm_pap now auto-discovers password encryption/hash methods.
32 See "man rlm_pap" and the "authorize" section of "radiusd.conf".

34 * "virtual" modules can now be used. See the last bit of the
35 "instantiate" section in "radiusd.conf".
36 * Fix problems with Exec-Program-Wait & forking issues.
37 * Configuration files can now "$INCLUDE directory/", to automatically
38 load all files in that directory. Use with caution!
39 * Fix for log_dest = stdout/stderr.
40 * New "policy" module, which has none of the limitations of the
41 "users" file. See "man rlm_policy" for details.
42 * rlm_sql can now behave more like the "users" file.
43 * New rlm_caching module.
44 * Now uses autoconf 2.5x, and the various associated tools.

46 ucd-snmp backwards compatibility mode.
47 * Modules can now be load-balanced. See "doc/configurable_failover"
48 * Move the Login-Time,Current-Time,Expiration attribute handling
49 to new modules rlm_logintime and rlm_expiration.
50 * Added %{mschap:NT-Hash <passwd>} and %{mschap: LM-Hash <passwd>},
51 and update rlm_pap to handle NT/LM-hashed passwords.
52 * New rlm_protocol_filter, which permits/denies requests containing
54 * Don't escape printed strings during xlat's, to avoid the
55 infinite expansion of backslashes..
56 * Add Message-Authenticator to rlm_digest sample.
57 * Correct handling of post-auth REJECT stanza to include externally and
58 proxy-received rejections. (Bugzilla bug #149)
59 * Fix building SNMP support on Solaris 9, which needs -lkstat
60 * Fix bug in calling checkrad script with NAS port > 9999999
61 * Fix long-standing bug when both crypt and pthreads are in use

71 values with different values, and rejects dictionary
73 * Update dictionaries to deal with the above change.
75 FreeRADIUS 1.0.0 ; Date: 2004/07/17 06:31:32, urgency=low
77 * Fix LDAP dictionary map loading.
78 * Check login time allowance to packet timestamp where available.
79 * Compilation fix for machines without <pthread.h>.
80 * Man page improvements.
81 * Grab latest config.sub and config.guess (2004-03-12).
84 * Make IPv6 support work better.
85 * Updated 3com dictionary.
86 * Fixed MD5 code to be more portable.

92 * Don't complain about ports we're listening on when HUP'd.
93 * Permit -i to work for radclient.
94 * Fix bug in new proxy code.
95 * rlm_passwd is now a little friendlier.
97 Non source-code changes
98 * Preliminary tests indicate that the server builds and runs on
99 Interix (SFU on Windows XP).
100 * EAP module configuration is now in "raddb/eap.conf", as it was
102 * Updated GPL boilerplate in the source.
103 * Added new RFC's to doc/rfc/
104 * Added more "man" pages for many of the modules. Many of the
105 'doc/rlm_*' files have been deleted, and replaced with 'man' pages.
106 * Added many new dictionaries: 3GPP, 3GPP2, Propel, Karlnet,
107 Sonicwall, Navini, Bristol University, Valemont, Mikrotik.
108 * doc/configurable_failover is now understandable by mere humans.
109 * Update scripts/rc.radiusd with examples of how to deal with
110 shared library issues.

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

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

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

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

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

374 * Removed all need for the old-style 'naslist' and 'client' files,
375 and noted that they are deprecated.
376 * Added support for Status-Server packets, stolen shamelessly
377 from Cistron RADIUSD. This is despite the RFC's saying such
379 * Bug fixes to rlm_dbm.
380 * Updates for checkrad, max40xx routine, from Aleksandr Kuzminsky.

400 * doc/aaa.txt describes how the server works.
401 * More uniform encoding/decoding of passwords, so that they will
402 be seen as clear-text where possible.
403 * radwho and radzap now read 'radiusd.conf' to discover where the
404 radutmp files are located. Patch from Andrea Gabellini.
405 * Preliminary 'expression' module, to allow you to do cool things
406 like: Session-Timeout = `%{expr:3600 - %{sql:SELECT ...}}`
407 * Added ability to do xlat on check items, and reply items,
408 so that the value of the reply attributes can be dynamically
410 * Added MIBs, taken from the RFC's. This makes SNMP queries to
411 the server a little easier to set up.

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

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

608 * fgetpwent() compatibility, for systems without it,
609 from Daniel Carroll <freeradius@defiant.mesastate.edu>
610 * Added PAP authentication module, as a step to removing
611 most authentication handlers in other modules.
612 * Send a Access-Reject after max_request_time
613 * Multiple fixes in the LDAP module.
614 * Quintum dictionary by Jeremy McNamara <jj@indie.org>
615 * Preliminary EAP Module with MD5 support
616 Contributed by Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
617 * Better sanity checking for bad VSA's when receiving a packet
618 * new 'xlat register' so that attribute values may be pulled
619 out of configurable databases at run-time.
620 e.g. %{ldap:ldap:///dc=company,dc=com?uid?sub?uid=%u}
621 * Minor fixes to debian package rules
622 * Attribute 'Password' deprecated in favor of 'User-Password'.
623 * MS-CHAP and MS-CHAPv2 MPPE support added.
624 Contributed by Takahiro Wagatsuma <waga@sic.shibaura-it.ac.jp>.
625 * X9.9 token enhancements (several).
627 -- Alan DeKok <aland@ox.org>
629 FreeRADIUS 0.4.0 ; urgency=low
631 * Allow the MS-CHAP module to work, and to read /etc/smbpass
632 3APA3A <3APA3A@SECURITY.NNOV.RU>
633 * Remove the server requirement that one of User-Password
634 or CHAP-Password exist when doing authentication. These
635 checks should be handled by the modules. This change
636 also prepares us for EAP.
637 Patch from Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
638 * Make NAS-Port-ID in radwho, raduse, etc. unsigned,
640 Patch from John Morrissey <jwm@horde.net>
641 * Allow \t and \n inside of configuration strings.
642 Frank Cusack <fcusack@fcusack.com>
643 * X9.9 Challenge-Response token card support.
644 For now, only CRYPTOCard tokens are supported.

649 * Fix memory leak in rlm_counter
650 Kostas Kalevras <kkalev@noc.ntua.gr>
651 * "LOCAL" realms do not need to have an entry in the 'clients'
652 file. Philippe Levan <levan@epix.net>
654 -- Alan DeKok <aland@ox.org>
656 FreeRADIUS 0.3.0 ; urgency=low
658 * Added ability to send debug messages to the log file, when
659 running in daemon mode.
660 * Miscellaneous fixes to get Debian packaging working.
661 * When trapping a signal, don't SIGKILL children on a SIGTERM,
662 SIGTERM them, instead. This allows Exec-Program scripts to
663 catch the signal, and finish processing, instead of dying.
664 Bug noted by Michael Chernyakhovsky <magmike@mail.ru>
665 * Increased limit on length of user name read from /etc/passwd,
666 to match the maximum allowed by RADIUS.
667 Bug noted by "Gonzalez B., Fernando" <fgonzalez@manquehue.cl>
668 * Configurable fail-over when proxying packets. If the
669 home server doesn't respond to a repeated proxied request,
670 it's marked as 'dead', and the next one in the list is used.
671 Patch by Eddie Stassen <eddies@saix.net> and <spirn@21cn.com>
672 * Pass Access-Challenge attributes through the server, in
674 Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
675 * More fixes for RFC compliance on the Message-Authenticator
676 Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
677 * Merged OSFC2/OSFSIA authentication patches from Cistron.
678 (Bug # 104) The patches are not well tested, however.
679 * IBM DB2 UDB V7.1 SQL driver, contributed by
680 Joerg Wendland <wendland@scan-plus.de>
681 * Fix the IP + Port address assignment.
682 Bug found by "John Padula" <john_padula@aviancommunications.com>
683 * Patch to avoid smashing the contents of Ascend binary filters.
684 Michael Chernyakhovsky <magmike@mail.ru>
685 * Create and Validate Message-Authenticator attribute, in
687 * Initialize variables properly in rlm_attr_filter.
688 Patch from Andriy I Pilipenko <bamby@marka.net.ua>
689 * Renamed RedHat init script from 'radiusd.init' to 'radiusd'.
690 This allows it to work properly with the RedHat rc system.
691 Patch from Christian Vogel <chris@amor.iksys.de>
692 * Fix the configure script checks for PostgreSQL, so that
693 they use the 'test' command properly.
694 Bug found by Robert Haskins <rhaskins@ziplink.net>
695 * Change instances of 'assert' to 'rad_assert', so that it
696 can log the error to the standard radius log files.
697 Patch from Vesselin Atanasov <vesselin@bgnet.bg>
698 * Patch to prevent segv when freeing results, from
699 Tomas Heredia <tomas@intermediasp.com>
700 * Added support for Exec-Program to acct. Bug found by
702 * Corrected rlm_files so that raddb/acct_users works

704 entries, so that the server doesn't eat CPU time.
705 Raghu <raghud@hereuare.com>
706 * Add primitive dictionary.nomadix <CBoyd@apogeetelecom.com>
707 * Log messages to console, if the logger hasn't been
708 initialized. <vesselin@bgnet.bg>
709 * Log invalid user for proxy rejects, too. <help@visp.net>
710 * Fixed Expiration attribute handling.
711 * Added code to handle Ascend-Send-Secret and Ascend-Receive-Secret
712 * Removed non thread-pool code. If we have threads, we now force
713 the use of thread pools.
714 * Update version number
715 * correct bug where proxied accounting packets would never have a
716 reply sent back to the NAS, or the reply would be sent twice.
718 -- Alan DeKok <aland@ox.org>
720 FreeRADIUS Alpha 0.2.0, July 30, 2001.
722 * call openlog() again when using PAM, to get the correct log
724 * Update child thread code, to minimize race conditions.
725 * Make thread pools the default. Using plain child threads is NOT
727 * Ignore SIGPIPE to get ride of crashes when using ldap.
728 * Update proxying code to work better.
729 * Platform independent pthread_cancel()ling
730 * Fix 'unresponsive child pid' erroneous warning messages.
731 * Many changes to get various SQL modules working.
732 Note that there may still be some issues with Oracle.
733 * Added configure options 'with-rlm-FOO-include/lib-dir', so that
734 lower-level rlm_FOO modules can be configured via the top-level
735 configuration file. This isn't completely done yet.
736 * Fix check for shared library using libtool info, instead of
737 assuming extension being ".so".
738 * Fixes for HPUX. We probably need more.
739 * Many additional bug fixes and changes.
