Note
|
The configuration for 3.0 is largely compatible with the 2.x.x configuration. However, it is NOT possible to simply use the 2.x.x configuration as-is. Instead, you should re-create it. |
The raddb
directory has been re-arranged. Some
directory paths are now much deeper than they used to be. However,
the files now have a consistent naming scheme.
Unlang
The unlang
policy language has been updated.
New / Changed Functionality
A number of other functionality has changed.
Security
A number of configuration items have moved into the "security" subsection of radiusd.conf. If you use these, you should move them. Otherwise, they can be ignored.
The list of moved options is:
chroot user group allow_core_dumps reject_delay status_server
These entries should be moved from radiusd.conf
to the security
subsection of that file.
Naming
Many names used by configuration items were inconsistent in earlier versions of the server. These names have been unified in version 3.0.
If a file is being referenced or created, the name filename
is used instead of detailfile
or usersfile
, etc.
If a file is being created, the initial permissions are set by the
permissions
configuration directive.
If a directory hierarchy needs to be created, the permissions are set
by dir_permissions
.
If an external host is referenced in the context of a module the
server
configuration directive is used.
The configuration directives are now written as multiple distinct
words separated by underscores _
. Previously, hyphens or
underscores were used at random.
The configuration directives file
, script_file
, module
,
detail
, detailfile
, attrsfile
, perm
, dirperm
, detailperm
,
and hostname
are deprecated. As well as any false portmanteaus, and
configuration items that used hyphens as word delimiters.
e.g. foo-bar
has been changed to foo_bar
. Please update your
module configuration to use the new syntax.
In most cases the server will tell you the replacement config item to use. As always, run the server in debugging mode to see these messages.
Dialup_admin
The dialip_admin directory has been removed. No one stepped forward to maintain it, and the code had not been changed in many years.
The code is now hosted in dialup_admin on Github.
