Radius plugin failover - not working?

Hello,

We have a server running Fedora Core 3 linux (2.6.12-1.1372_FC3 kernel),
with pptpd 1.2.2, freeradius 1.0.1, and ppp 2.4.3 (with mppe/mppc patch)
and the radius plugin. This is all used as a VPN server for mainly
Windows XP clients using mppe/pptp. This works fine - the radius plugin
talks fine with the local radius server.

However, I have being testing failover with another server using the
same software, and the failover does not seem to work. (I also tried
this with ppp 2.4.4.b1 - same result.) In the radiusclient.conf file on
the local host I have specified both radius servers for the
authserver/acctserver as:

  authserver  localhost:1812 vpn2.plymouth.ac.uk:1812
  acctserver  localhost:1813 vpn2.plymouth.ac.uk:1813

If I stop the local radius server, then I can see (using tcpdump and ppp
in debug mode) the local host/ppp sending a radius authentication
request to the remote server. The remote server sends the reply (an
authentication success). But the client always receives a 691 error
complaining about 'access was denied because the username and/or
password was invalid'. The username/pwd are correct.

(More details:
   client is      141.163.60.7
   local host is  141.163.111.250 (aka 'vpn1')
   remote host is 141.163.195.250 (aka 'vpn2') )

A snippet of the local host logged ppp messages shows:

I beg your pardon, Paul, but it's been three weeks since
I've sent this patch and I haven't seen any comments upon it.
Sorry for my impatience, but I think that this time must be
sufficient at least for reviewing and commenting, isn't it?

Hello,

Okay, you can ignore this. It was due to my misunderstanding of the
'key' in the radiusclient/servers file. I have now corrected this, and
failover works fine :-)

Sorry for the hassle.

John.

Re: Authentificating with certificates ("unknown authentication type 13; Naking")

hi all,

there already is a patch to do EAP-TLS authentication with ppp; see
  http://eaptls.spe.net
for details. I've just completed the patch against ppp-2.4.3 to allow 
MPPE encryption with EAP-TLS. I have created two versions:
- one against the ppp_mppe module which supports 128bit MPPE but no MPPC
- one against the ppp_mppe_mppc module which supports 40/56/128 bit MPPE 
and MPPC (but there are some licensing issues, I believe, with using MPPC).
Tested it with both XP and W2K as clients, Linux as a PoPToP server - 
works beautifully :)

anybody interested?

cheers,

JJK

Re: Authentificating with certificates ("unknown authentication type 13; Naking")

Yes, we know about EAP-TLS.

But EAP-TLS does not allow you to use MPPE/MPPC (128bit) since
MPPE/MPPC patch expects that you use MS-CHAP[v2] authentification and
EAP-TLS patch uses EAP authentification.

Did you hack the EAP-TLS patch to provide correct credentials to
MPPE/MPPC patch. Are you sure you are using MPPE/MPPC?

I thought I was (PPTP said in output log it negotiated MPPE 128bit)
but I was getting errors like "Unknown protocol 0x??...".

As it turns out when I added "require-mppe" to my options the tunnel
was not being setup anymore and I started getting errors in the lines
of "MS-CHAP[v2] required for MPPE/MPPC".

If you have a patch for this we'd of course be more than happy to se it.

Cheers,
Bojan

Re: Authentificating with certificates ("unknown authentication type 13; Naking")

I have hacked pppd to allows MPPE 128 bit encryption. The Windows PPTP 
VPN status screen tells me it is using MPPE128 encryption but no 
compression; ethereal dumps show me the data is compressed/encrypted. 
Without the MPPE encryption I can see still the original packets inside 
the GRE tunnel, with MPPE I cannot. This version is available on 
http://eaptls.spe.net in the download section.

I have also created a hacked version of pppd in combination with 
ppp_mppe_mppc that allow MPPE+MPPC. With this module, the PPTP VPN 
status screen tells me it is using MPPE128 encryption (or MPPE40/MPPE56) 
and MPPC compression. This version is not yet available on the internet 
but I am working on a DKMS version of the ppp_mppe_mppe module. I have a 
patched ppp-2.4.3 source tree available.
