This page covers installation of DaloRADIUS and extending it. All this should be done on an extroot as it will take too much space for most routers and in the case of mysql poses the risk of wearing down your flash! Warning: all this has been commited from memory!

• You need to have a freeradius server up and running.
  Unfortunately, this is not documented on this wiki yet, but relatively straightforward. This howto expects that you have one already up and running.
• You should have configured your Wifi to use your radius server.
  For this, see wpa_enterprise_access_point. Don't forget, that you will need wpad instead of wpad-mini for enterprise WPA!
• It might be a good idea to have LuCI running on Lighthttpd

• lighttpd as webserver
• lighttpd-mod-fastcgi to run php5
• php5-fastcgi
• php-pear-db prerequisite for daloradius
• php5-mod-session prerequisite for daloradius
• php5-mod-gd prerequisite for daloradius
• php5-mod-mysql prerequisite for daloradius
• mysql-server prerequisite for daloradius
• freeradius2-mod-sql-mysql to connect freeradius to your DB
• samba36-server if you want to use the NT-Hash authentification described below

opkg install lighttpd lighttpd-mod-fastcgi php5-fastcgi php-pear-db php5-mod-session php5-mod-gd php5-mod-mysql mysql-server freeradius2-mod-sql-mysql

Download daloradius-XXX.tar.gz from http://sourceforge.net/projects/daloradius/files/latest/download

gunzip daloradius-XXX.tar.gz
tar xzvf daloradius-XXX.tar
mv daloradius-XXX /www/daloradius

In /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf (note that bin-path differs from the default in this file!):

#### fastcgi module
## read fastcgi.txt for more info
fastcgi.server = (
        ".php" => (
                "localhost" => (
                        "socket" => "/tmp/php-fastcgi.socket",
                        "bin-path" => "/usr/bin/php-fcgi"
                )
        )
)

Create a file /etc/php5/pear.ini or edit your /etc/php.ini

include_path = ".:/usr/lib/php/"

Set a datadir in /etc/my.cnf

datadir         = /data/mysql/

and run

mysql_install_db --force

Create a DB 'radius' and a user by the same name. Insert your password.

cat <<EOF | mysql -u root
CREATE DATABASE radius CHARACTER SET utf8;
GRANT ALL ON radius.* TO 'username'@'127.0.0.1' IDENTIFIED BY 'password' WITH GRANT OPTION;
EOF

Fill database

mysl -u root radius < /www/daloradius/contrib/db/fr2-mysql-daloradius-and-freeradius.sql

edit /www/daloradius/library/daloradius.conf.php to your needs - at LEAST the CONFIG_DB_HOST (change to 127.0.0.1 so that user above matches), CONFIG_DB_PORT, CONFIG_DB_USER and CONFIG_DB_PASS.

• The freeradius-mod-sql-mysql package is missing the $INCLUDE sql/${database}/dialup.conf file. google it, download it and put it in the right place on your machine.
• Add your credentials to the /etc/freeradius/sql.conf
• Uncomment the sql module in /etc/freeradius/sites/default

Daloradius should be available now at http://openwrt.lan/daloradius/index.php - have fun!

Quite probably, you are going to use MSCHAPv2, and probably you don't wanna store cleartext passwords. Which means, you'll have to use NT-Hashes.

To get NT-Hashes, you need the smbencrypt tool. This is not available for openwrt, but smbpasswd is and uses the same algorithm. This script serves as a workaround (ugly!):

#!/bin/bash
PWD=$1
DUMMYUSER="smbencrypt_dummy"
 
# if there is no user $DUMMYUSER, we have to add it to /etc/passwd using the nobody group
grep -q smbencrypt_dummy /etc/passwd || echo "$DUMMYUSER:*:65533:65534:dummy_user_for_fake_smbencrypt:/var:/bin/false" >> /etc/passwd
 
# add entry to /etc/samba/smbpasswd
cat <<EOF | smbpasswd -s -a $DUMMYUSER
$1
$1
EOF
 
# get entry
NTHASH=`grep $DUMMYUSER /etc/samba/smbpasswd | cut -d':' -f4`
 
# remove $DUMMYUSER from /etc/samba/smbpasswd
smbpasswd -x $DUMMYUSER
 
#remove $DUMMYUSER from /etc/passwd
sed -i "/$DUMMYUSER/d" /etc/passwd
 
# output results
cat <<EOF
LM Hash                            NT Hash
--------------------------------   --------------------------------
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX   $NTHASH
EOF

To be able to enter such an NT-Hash in Daloradius, add to /www/daloradius/mng-new.php after line 618:

                        <option value='NT-Password'>NT-Password</option>

note that at this state you still have to enter your calculated NT-Hash in the password text field!

If you want daloradius to calculate your NT-Hash for you if you select NT-Password, you have to add the following code to /www/daloradius/mng-new.php after line 438 (don't forget to copy the above script to /bin/smbencrypt!):

// or calculate an NT hash
                                        } elseif ($passwordtype=="NT-Password"){
                                                $dbPassword = "'".shell_exec("smbencrypt '".escapeshellcmd($dbPassword)."' | tail -n1 | sed 's/^X* *//'")."'";
                                        }

From what I've seen so far, daloradius is cool - but the code looks to me like it's prone to all kinds of injections. As it is an interface that should ony accessed by the administrator (you!): put it behind an HTTP auth - see lighttpd_mod_auth
