NAME
raddebug - Display debugging output from a running server. SYNOPSIS
raddebug [-c condition] [-d config_directory] [-i ipv4-address] [-I ipv6-address] [-f socket_file] [-t timeout] [-u user-name] DESCRIPTION
raddebug is a shell script wrapper around radmin that automates the process of obtaining debugging output from a running server. It does this without impacting service availability, unlike using radiusd -X. There are a number of prerequisites that are required for its proper operation: * radmin must be available in the PATH. * The user running raddebug must have permission to connect to the server control socket. * The control socket must be configured. For instructions, see raddb/sites-available/control-socket * The control socket must be marked as "mode = rw". * The user running raddebug must have permission to read and write files in the "logdir" directory. This is usually /var/log/radiusd. For a number of reasons, the debugging output is placed in an intermediate file, rather than being sent directly to standard output. In order to prevent this file from growing too large, the raddebug program is automatically terminated after 10 seconds. This timeout can be changed via the "-t" parameter. When the script exits, debug mode in the server is disabled, and the intermediate file is deleted. Debug output from a live server can be redirected to only one location. If a second instance of raddebug is started while the first one is still running, the later one will over-ride the first one, and the first will stop producing output. OPTIONS
-c condition Set a specific debug condition. The format of the condition is as specified in the CONDITIONS section of the unlang manual page. -f socket_file The path to the control socket. See the radmin manual page for more description of this option. -i ipv4-address Show debug output for the client having the given IPv4 address. This option is equivalent to using: -c '(Packet-Src-IP-Address == ipv4-address)' -d config directory The radius configuration directory, usually /etc/raddb. See the radmin manual page for more description of this option. -I ipv6-address Show debug output for the client having the given IPv6 address. This option is equivalent to using: -c '(Packet-Src-IPv6-Address == ipv6-address)' -t timeout Stop printing debug output after "timeout" seconds. The default timeout is sixty (60) seconds. Use "-t 0" to print debugging out- put forever, or until the script exits. -u name Show debug output for users having the given name. This option is equivalent to using: -c '(User-Name == name)' SEE ALSO

NAME
radzap - remove rogue entries from the active sessions database SYNOPSIS
radzap [-d raddb_directory] [-h] [-N nas_ip_address] [-P nas_port] [-u user] [-U user] [-x] server[:port] secret DESCRIPTION
The FreeRadius server can be configured to maintain an active session database in a file called radutmp. Commands like radwho(1) use this database. Sometimes that database can get out of sync, and then it might contain rogue entries. radzap can clean up this database. As of FreeRADIUS 1.1.0, radzap is a simple shell-script wrapper around radwho(1) and radclient(1). The sessions are "zapped" by sending an Accounting-Request packet which contains the information necessary for the server to delete the session record. radzap sends a packet to the server, rather than writing to radutmp directly, because session records may also be main- tained in SQL. OPTIONS
-d raddb_directory The directory that contains the RADIUS configuration files. radzap reads radiusd.conf to determine the location of the radutmp file. -h Print usage help information. -N nas_ip_address Zap the entries which match the given NAS IP address. -P nas_port Zap the entries which match the given NAS port. -u user Zap the entries which match the given username (case insensitive). -U user Zap the entries which match the given username (case sensitive). -x Enable debugging output. server[:port] The hostname or IP address of the remote server. Optionally a UDP port can be specified. If no UDP port is specified, it is looked up in /etc/services. The service name looked for is radacct for accounting packets, and radius for all other requests. If a service is not found in /etc/services, 1813 and 1812 are used respectively. secret The shared secret for this client. It needs to be defined on the radius server side too, for the IP address you are sending the radius packets from. SEE ALSO
