Exec-Program

When present in RHS, the Exec-Program attribute specifies the full pathname and arguments for the program to be executed when the entry matches.

The command line can reference any attributes from both check and reply pairlists using attribute macros (see section Macro Substitution).

Before the execution of the program radiusd switches to uid and gid of user daemon, group daemon. You can override these defaults by setting variables exec-program-user and exec-program-group in configuration file to proper values section option block.

The daemon does not wait for the process to terminate.

Example

Suppose the `users' file contains the following entry:

    DEFAULT Auth-Type = System,
                    Simultaneous-Use = 1
            Exec-Program = "/usr/local/sbin/logauth \
                            %C{User-Name} \
                            %C{Calling-Station-Id}"

Then, upon successful matching, the program `/usr/local/sbin/logauth' will be executed. It will get as its arguments the values of User-Name and Calling-Station-Id attributes from the request pairs.
