(RADIATOR) Radiator Version 3.11 released

[Mike McCauley]

We are pleased to announce the release of Radiator version 3.11

This version contains some new features such as a new AuthBy MULTICAST
module that allows you to forward Radius requests to all servers in a
list, and RPM support for more platforms, but the main driver for this new 
release is to fix a bug that was introduced in 3.10 which can delay session 
resumption in PEAP and TTLS.

As usual, the new version is available to current licensees from:
http://www.open.com.au/radiator/downloads/

and to current evaluators from:
http://www.open.com.au/radiator/demo-downloads

Licensees with expired access contracts can renew at :

-----------------------------
Revision 3.11 (2004-10-25) Some new features and an important bug fix. 

New module AuthBy MULTICAST proxies some or all requests to _all_
Hosts in a list. Contributed by Andrew Ivins and Swiftel.

New example code in goodies/hooks.txt for processing multiple
cisco-avpair attributes. Contributed by Chris.Patterson.

Improvements to Monitor.pm so that stringarray and splitstringarray
types can be displayed in Radar.

Improvements to AuthBy FILE so that a Filename of the form %D/users.%R
(where the file to be loked at depends on the users Realm) will work
correctly with caching turned on. Contributed by Ivan Brawley.

Improvements to ClientListSQL, so that SQL failures during reloading
of the client list will result in the old list being continued to be
used. Contributed by Ivan Brawley. Similar changes to ClientListLDAP.

Testing on Fedora Core 2. OK.

Testing on SuSE 9.1. OK, but fixes required for /etc/init.d/radiator
in RPM.

Testing on Slackware 10.0. OK, but fixes required for RPM
installs. Slackware requires rpm --nodeps to install the RPM

Fixed a problem that prevented logging of some incoming packets
through Monitor. Reported and patched by Ivan Brawley.

Fixed a problem introduced in 3.10 with reassociating after poor
coverage. Reported by Roy Badami.

Fixed a problem with AcceptIfMissing which did not work correctly if
the user did not exist in the database.

Fixed a problem where logging at trace level 4 to an SQL database
could cause problems with quoting on Informix due to a newline in the
log message.

We now ensure the openssl session resumption time limit is set in
accordance with EAPTLS_SessionResumptionLimit. Reported and patched by
Roy Badami.

Improvements to restartWrapper so it can log to syslog through
/usr/bin/logger. Contributed by Nennker, Axel.

Log SQL and Log SYSLOG loggers now support MaxMessageLength parameter
which trucates the log message (prior to any quoting in the case of
SQL). Useful for some types of SQL server that complain if given a
string longer than the column its going in to.
