radattr.so - RADIUS utility plugin for pppd(8)SYNOPSIS
pppd [ options ] plugin radius.so plugin radattr.so
DESCRIPTION
The radattr plugin for pppd causes all radius attributes returned by the RADIUS server at authentication time to be stored in the file
/var/run/radattr.pppN where pppN is the name of the PPP interface. The RADIUS attributes are stored one per line in the format "Attribute-
Name Attribute-Value". This format is convenient for use in /etc/ppp/ip-up and /etc/ppp/ip-down scripts.
Note that you must load the radius.so plugin before loading the radattr.so plugin; radattr.so depends on symbols defined in radius.so.
USAGE
To use the plugin, simply supply the plugin radius.so plugin radattr.so options to pppd.

radius - nnrpd RADIUS password authenticator
SYNOPSIS
radius [-h] [-f config]
DESCRIPTION
radius is an nnrpd authenticator, accepting a username and password from nnrpd (given to nnrpd by a reader connection) and attempting to
authenticate that username and password against a RADIUS server. See readers.conf(5) for more information on how to configure an nnrpd
authenticator. It is useful for a site that already does user authentication via RADIUS and wants to authenticate news reading connections
as well.
By default, radius reads pathetc/radius.conf for configuration information, but a different configuration file can be specified with -f.
See radius.conf(5) for a description of the configuration file.
OPTIONS -f config
Read config instead of pathetc/radius.conf for configuration information.
-h Print out a usage message and exit.
EXAMPLE
The following readers.conf(5) fragment tells nnrpd to authenticate all connections using this authenticator:
auth radius {
auth: radius
default: <FAIL>
default-domain: example.com
}
"@example.com" will be appended to the user-supplied identity, and if RADIUS authentication failes, the user will be assigned an identity
of "<FAIL>@example.com".
BUGS
It has been reported that this authenticator doesn't work with Ascend RADIUS servers, but does work with Cistron RADIUS servers. It's also
believed to work with Livingston's RADIUS server. Contributions to make it work better with different types of RADIUS servers would be
gratefully accepted.
This code has not been audited against the RADIUS protocol and may not implement it correctly.
HISTORY
The RADIUS authenticator was originally written by Aidan Cully. This documentation was written by Russ Allbery <rra@stanford.edu>.
