Hello List:
This question is for somebody who is using 3Com TC with freeRADIUS!!!
In freeRADIUS file naspasswd (/usr/local/etc/raddb/naspasswd) has an entry for NAS as follows:
<NAS ip-address> <login-Name> <password>
Is the <NAS ip-address> of NAS is the IP address assigned to HiPerARC or something else? What is the <login-Name>? Where is it setup in 3Com TC? Where is the <password> setup in 3Com TC?
I also notice that in "naspasswd" file the sample <login-Name> is "!root". I understand the "root" login-Name but why "!" ahead of it? What does it mean? I don't use freeRadius but I use ICRadius which was developed by one of the developers of the freeradius deal. I believe that file is only used if you are going to call external scripts that would need to login to the NAS. TC would do most things via SNMP. The "!" is standard programming term for "NOT". As in Don't use the root user and password here because someone might
be able to get it, use it, and whipe you out. But, yes, that would normally be the ARC password. -- Lewis Bergman Texas Communications 4309 Maple St. Abilene, TX 79602-8044 915-695-6962 ext 115 _______________________________________________ USR-TC mailing list USR-TC@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/usr-tc
