(RADIATOR) EAP_TTLS

Tue Oct 1 07:36:04 CDT 2002

Mike and Hugh,

I downloaded, and installed the patches but got the same results...A 
colleague of mine, Chris Dufala, looked at the code in EAP.pm...tweaked 
it a bit and now it is working.  You should have an received an email 
from him as well.  However, since you are more familiar with all the 
code, maybe this was just a temporary fix for our problem, and may 
introduce problems later?

His email is below....

I am an associate of Steve Caporrossi's at the Medical University of 
South Carolina.

Steve had notified you, regarding a problem using EAP-TTLS with the 
3.3.1 version
of Radiator with patches applied.  While looking through the EAP.pm 
module, I located
a small syntax error in the code that was preventing a sucessful 
connection using the
Odyssey Client :

Error Message :

    Mon Sep 30 12:44:25 2002: ERR: Could not handle an EAP request: Can't
       use string ("TTLS") as an ARRAY ref while "strict refs" in use at
       /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Radius/EAP.pm line 117.

Resolution :  (lines 117 & 118)

Current :
        # my $defaulttype = $eap_name_to_type{$self->{EAPType}[0]}
        #        || return ($main::REJECT, "Unknown default EAP type 
$self->{EAPType}[0]");

Change to :
        my $defaulttype = $eap_name_to_type{$self->{EAPType}}
                || return ($main::REJECT, "Unknown default EAP type 
$self->{EAPType}");

I hope this helps :>

-Chris

Thanks,

Steve
