Bug Description

Currently I have freeradius running on an old solaris box. I was planning to move it to an ubuntu system, but discovered that hardy is missing eap-ttls (and eap-tls and eap-peap). As such I cannot use it to replace my existing system. The features are available in free radius, just not in the ubuntu/debian build. I would like to see these added if possible.

Here is a link for someone else's instructions on the work around. http://www.linuxinsight.com/building-debian-freeradius-package-with-eap-tls-ttls-peap-support.html

Copy incase link goes dead
   1. edit debian/rules, search for eap and change every mentioning of --without-rlm_eap-* to --with-rlm_eap-*
   2. few lines below, in the same file, replace --without-openssl with --with-openssl
   3. still editing the same file, find the following chuck of code and delete it entirely:
      for pkg in $(shell grep ^Package debian/control | awk '{print $$2}') ; d
      o \
        if dh_shlibdeps -p $$pkg -- -O | grep -q libssl; then \
          echo "$$pkg links to openssl" ;\
          exit 1 ;\
        fi ;\
      done
   4. finally, edit debian/control and at the end of the line starting with Build-Depends: (second line in the file) add , libssl-dev

Thanks for the bug report, however we are not able to ship freeradius with openssl enabled due to the license. However if there is an effort upstream to get freeradius to use gnutls I would gladly support.

Regards
