IAS server 2003 authenticationtion based on SQL

[ghias]

hello everyone,



i need to ask ,, how should i configure ias authentication in a way
that it should check the user in sql table that he/ she possess enough
amount to grant access-accept msg to the NAS.

i have made IAS radius in 2003 server to work for voip billing with
cisco 2600 running AAA as a client. my VB code puts the data from log
file to the database where i perform certain actions to get auditing
done on base of calling no and connection-id.

now i want ias 's authentication to work in a way that it should check
that the calling no as "username" in table and its amount which should
be above 0 to proceed for calling.

i am newbie in this arena ...and very confused to get it working.
have to submit it working very shortly....
so pls if any one can guide me ! i will be v thankful

also, how to configure or make it , IAS to check for only those
usenames present in users table

confused,
ghias.

You will need to write an extension DLL for IAS to be able to do this,
follow the samples in MSDN under platform SDK to be able to do this

There is no way out of the box to do this, you have to extend IAS
functionality to be successful

thanks for ur response.... i saw it on msdn but there wasnt no
complete documentation there, also it was very difficult for me to
understand through it. cuz i m working on vb.net and its on c++.


as a newbie r there other samples present for vb.net

i will be very thankful.

There are only couple done in VB. But it is certainly doable with VB.NET or
C#

Unfortunately, there aren't a lot of samples on that, but work your way
through the reference it would help

If you get stuck, Ask!

ok now consider me langugage independent,
i went through msdn and to the .net. i came to know that i can do this
in C++ .net , cuz when u click the new project in C++.net there are
many options (win32, MFC dll, MFC application , etc......).now please
guide me that relating to my query i.e. writing an extension DLL for
IAS and
(SQL) how do i start. which option should i use for writing a DLL.
and is it console programming or what??

thanks.

I would suggest installing the platform SDK, and taking a look at 2 sample
extension DLLs in there
They should help you have a head start. You can just gut the code out and
use same headers ...etc

one question for vb.net

from radius log , i m getting disconnect time and connect time in the
following format

02:25:54 02:26:12 (hh:mm:ss)

i need to get 2nd one subtracted from the 1st one...and the
output,duration, should be in minutes.

the code is being written in vb.net.
so question , is there any function .pre-defined , i can use to get
the desired result... or should i have to manipulate it myself.(by
using code logic)

thanks indeed

Isn't that what TimeSpan is for?

Yep, good call Brian

of course, before using it, you will need to cast the two times to the same
format
