permanent user cannot change password

[tianqingge]

Hi Dirk,

Recently I setup Radiusdesk again on new machine, and created some
permanent users.

But I noticed that permanent users cannot change password by their own ,it
says user have

no right to change.So I have to use Access Provider to change the password.

Another issue is every time the Radiusdesk startup , I have to manually
start radiusd service by run

sudo /etc/init.d/radiusd start , otherwise user can not get authentication.

Can you advice ?

Thanks in advance!

Best Regards,

I'm running Radiusdesk on a VM and have the same problem so I'd be interested in any advice as well

Hey guys, so you will need to ensure radiusd starts on boot. If you use RHEL/CentOS, it should just be

chkconfig radiusd on

and if using Ubuntu, you can use

sudo cp /usr/local/sbin/rc.radiusd /etc/init.d/radiusd
sudo update-rc.d radiusd start 80 2 3 4 5 . stop 20 0 1 6 .

As for Permanent users not changing their own passwords, I believe the RBAC implementation in RADIUSdesk is not yet complete and so you might want to look at developing a custom solution using the API before there is an official implementation of RBAC in RADIUSdesk
