FAQ

Saved cookies need to deleted after the authorization cache is restarted.

If you get an error page from the delegation server, delete your gpcentral cookies and reintroduce your self.

Error pages may also be displayed if the introduction cache is not running. Start up the Java daemon and try again.

Debugging Tips

check /var/log/messages for dhcpd and named startup success or problems
DNS config files are owned by user "named" in group "named"; reset ownership after editing
use DIG to verify dns "named" operation
eg. DIG www.google.com
or DIG @10.0.0.1 www.google.com
Browsers seem to ask for reverse name lookup when given numeric IP address
be sure switch ports are configured for correct VLAN
be sure network interfaces are connected to expected ports
be sure network interfaces have expected IP addresses
Building rlm_eap_tls for radiusd requires additional switch in ./configure
rlm_eap_tls module is optional and must be built manually
config files for "named" must be owned by user "named" in group "named" (editing will typically change these since the user "named" is locked.
when the delegation server returns a web page of traceback calls, the introduction cache on gpradius is usually not running. (should add error message to code here).
an introduction will return a web page of traceback calls when the web browser has a saved cookie from a previous startup of the authorization cache. Clearing the cookies (saved under gpcentral) clears the problem
