DESCRIPTION
Radmind uses the radmind access protocol to communicate with radmind
clients.
On startup, radmind changes directory to _RADMIND_PATH, creates com-
mand, file, special, tmp, tmp/file, tmp/transcript and transcript (
with permissions 0750 ) if they do not exist, and begins listening on
the radmind port ( by default 6662 ) for incoming connections. With
the -D option, radmind will use path as its working directory. Radmind
forks a child for each connection.
The file config contains a list of known clients that can connect to
radmind, one per line. Each line contains the CN, domain name or IP
address of the client and the client's command file. The server checks
each line of the config file, first checking to see if the connecting
client's CN, domain name, and finally IP address match in that order.
CNs and domain names are case insensitive. If the optional third field
begins with a '#', it is ignored and treated as an in-line comment.
Lines that are blank or begin with '#' are ignored. There are several
supported wildcard patterns similar to shell globbing. '*' will match
any string. A number range can be given by "<min-max>" where min is
the lower bound and max is the upper bound. '?' matches any single
character. The square bracket character list, "[abcd]", will match any
single character within the brackets. Comma-separated values contained
in curly braces, "{riverrun,past,Eve}" will match the first whole
string found. '\' can be used to escape any character.
A client is only given access to command files and transcripts listed
in their base command file as determined by the config file.
DIRECTORY STRUCTURE
command Stores command files.
transcripts Stores transcripts.
file All files served from the radmind server are stored
in the file directory. All files for a given tran-
script are stored in file/<transcript> where <tran-
script> is the name of the transcript. A file is
stored in file/<transcript>/<path> where <path> is
the file's path as listed in the transcript.
special All special files are stored in special. The spe-
cial files for a given host are stored in spe-
tmp/transcript All transcripts stored on the server using the STOR
command are saved in tmp/transcript.
RADMIND ACCESS PROTOCOL
Radmind currently supports the following Radmind Access Protocol ( RAP
) requests:
QUIT terminate session
NOOP do nothing
HELP display helpful message
STAT stat a transcript, command or special file. When statting a
command file or transcript, the mode, UID and GID default to
0444, 0, and 0 respectively. If no command file is speci-
fied, the server returns information on the base command file
as indicated in the config file.
Status of a special file is determined by a single transcript
line listed in a file named special/<special-file-path>.T ,
where <special-file-path> is the full path to the special
file. If that does not exist, a listing for the file in the
transcript/special.T transcript in the transcript directory
will be used. If neither of those exist, the defaults are
returned.
RETR retrieve a file, transcript command or special file. If no
command file is specified, the server returns the base com-
mand file as indicated in the config file.
STOR store a file or transcript. If user authentication is
enabled, this command is only valid after the client sends a
successful LOGI.
STAR Start TLS. If the server is run with an authorization level
of 2, this command must be given before a client can send a
STAT, RETR, or STOR.
LOGI Login user. This command is only valid after TLS has been
started.
COMP start compression
REPO report a client status message. The daemon logs the message
in the following format:
report HOSTNAME IP CN - EVENT MESSAGE...
First the string "report", followed by the client's hostname
and IP address. If the client authenticates to the server
with a certificate, its common name will be listed next. If
listen(2), by default five.
-D path specifies the radmind working directory, by default
_RADMIND_PATH
-d debug mode. Does not disassociate from controlling
tty.
-F syslog-facility specifies to which syslog facility to log messages.
-f run in foreground
-L syslog-level specifies at which syslog level to log messages.
-m max-connections specifies the maximum number of simultaneous connec-
tions, by default _RADMIND_MAXCONNECTIONS. Value
must be greater than or equal to 0 with 0 indicating
no limit.
-p port specifies the port of the radmind server, by default
6662.
-P ca-directory specifies a directory that contains certificates to
be used when verifying a client. Certificates must
be in PEM format and the directory must have been
processed with the openssl c_rehash utility.
-r use random seed file $RANDFILE if that environment
variable is set, $HOME/.rnd otherwise. See
RAND_load_file(3o).
-u umask specifies the umask the server uses to write files
to the disk, defaulting to the user's umask.
-U Turn on PAM user authentication. Requires auth-
level > 0. radmind uses the PAM service name rad-
mind.
-V displays the version of radmind and exits.
-w auth-level TLS authorization level, by default _RADMIND_AUTH-
LEVEL. 0 = no TLS, 1 = server verification, 2 =
server and client verification.
-x ca-pem-file Certificate authority's public certificate, by
default _RADMIND_TLS_CA. The default is not used
when -P is specified.
-y cert-pem-file Server's public certificate, by default _RAD-
MIND_TLS_CERT.
-z private-key-file
clients, each using one of three different command files. Also, any
client that ends with ".lab.umich.edu" will get lab.K as its config
file and clients in the IP range 212.12.243.1 through 212.12.243.50
will get solaris8.K as their config file. Note that numeric ranges
ignore leading zeros. Therefore the last line will match clients with
hostnames of mac1.umich.edu, mac01.umich.edu, mac001.umich,edu, etc.
