Add-In: EasyRadius (Beta)

Brent Freidman is keeping himself and the rest of us busy with another add-in release this week.

easyradius1 Add In: EasyRadius (Beta)

EasyRadius allows the simple installation and management of a Radius Server to provide added security for your home server.

Features:

  • Install (or uninstall) Internet Authentication Services
  • Configure IAS for Radius use (on install)
  • Create the Radius User Group
  • Manage Radius Users
  • Add/Remove Radius Users
  • Change Radius User passwords

Known Issues:

  • May not configure properly if you’ve previously configured IAS without deleting the IAS entrees and user group
  • Usernames can’t have spaces or symbols. (NT issue)

Tips:

  • To add a WHS user to the user group, just add the user putting in a fake password. If the user name already exists, it won’t create the account but it will add the user to the radius user group.
