Chance for RADIUS Server on the router itself!

[Dante_]

There is a firmware for WRT54G avaliable online wich includes a RADIUS server...

Oleg.. Check this out please...

[Oleg]

I have not found download link for the sources...

[Antiloop]

seems to be integrated in sveasuxt firmware

and perhaps sveasoft is not interrested in publishing GPL tarball of their firmware, because they(he) don't give a shit about GPL

From the TinyPeap web page:
"tinyPEAP itself is not really the firmware since it can be added to any firmware, but a very small RADIUS server."
There is also a win32 binary.

Binaries are unuseful, as WL500gan embedded environment which tend to have their own binary format (libc/ulib versions etc.). The biggest chance on getting this to work on WL-500g is to get the source code and compile it yourself.

idd..

and I haven't seen Windows CE on my wl500g
to run the win32 binary....

Does a win32 binary runs on WindowsCE?

Have you tried Tiny peap?

no / no sources are available..
and it seems i'm not the only one who can't find it ?

what abou trying freeRadius?

FreeRADIUS is the premiere open source RADIUS server. While detailed statistics are not available, we believe that FreeRADIUS is well within the top 5 RADIUS servers world-wide, in terms of the number of people who use it daily for authentication. It scales from embedded systems with small amounts of memory , to systems with millions of users. It is fast, flexible, configurable, and supports more authentication protocols than many commercial servers.

The server is released under the GNU General Public License (GPL)...

[Styno]

Damn you sound like some commercial guy

But anyway, you can try to compile freeRADIUS in order to get it to work on WL-500g. Do some tests (like number of users and memory usage). There have been other topics about authentication where ppl could've used a RADIUS server. So there's certainly a 'market' for this.

agree with styno..

anyway have any links? (lazy to google..)

[Oleg]

openwrt guys are trying to make it running.

[hugo]

If it can be of any help, I have the binary from the wrt54g firmware. I know it might run under some circonstance, so I leave this to those who wants to try it.

The tar file is non standard, and needs something better than the standard tar from wl 500 (I used winzip)

[MrMagu]

Any news regarding this?

[tomilius]

I'm extremely interested in this as well.

[thews@AsusRouter /tmp]$ peapd
Usage: peapd command [command_options...]
        where command is one of:
        run (runs the server) followed by:
                -D (optional - runs the server as a daemon)
                -I <address> (optional - binds the server to a specific
                        interface address
                -E (optional - embedded mode)
                        only allows packets from self
                        *must* be used with -I
        adduser (adds a user) followed by:
                <username> (fill in the username here)
                <password> (optional - fill in the password here)
        passwd (edit user's password -- synonymous with 'adduser')
                (see adduser, above)
                        if not provided, will prompt for password
        deluser (deletes a user) followed by:
                <username> (optional - fill in user to delete)
[thews@AsusRouter /tmp]$ peapd adduser Tommy
Enter new password:

OK.. well... looks like it COULD work. To get it to do that much on 1.9.2.7-3b I put libssl.so in /usr/local/lib (not a good idea since it won't fit in flash) and ran the following:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib

As far as I know it works. I mean, it RUNs as a server, or appears to, but I'm not sure how to test that. The configuration options just don't work. A new utility would have to be made for controlling those (that's what the web interface is for).
