[RADIATOR] ERR: Attribute number 101

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Adam -

The dictionary is the file that contains all of the RADIUS attribute definitions for the standard set plus all the vendor specifics.

The error you show is due to a missing vendor-specific for vendor 9967 which is listed as Bluesocket.

You should ask Bluesocket for their vendor-specific attribute definitions and add them to your dictionary.

The Radiator dictionary is a simple text file called "dictionary" in the main distribution directory.

In the meantime you can add the following to your dictionary to stop the error messages:


#
# Bluesocket
#

VENDOR          Bluesocket      9967
VENDORATTR      9967    Bluesocket-101                  101     string


You will need to restart "radiusd" to have the dictionary re-read.

When you do find out from Bluesocket what attributes they use, please send us a copy so we can add them to the standard Radiator dictionary.

regards

Hugh

NB: 

Have you read the reference manual ("doc/ref.html")?
Have you searched the mailing list archive (www.open.com.au/archives/radiator)?
Have you had a quick look on Google (www.google.com)?
Have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets), 
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
