Today's snapshot

    http://www.pro-bono-publico.de/projects/src/DEVEL.201102271335.tar.bz2

adds support for multiple key definitions to tac_plus. This may come
handy if you need to switch to a new key (e.g. old key was
compromised, regular key change intervals, ...).

Example:

host = ... {
    ...
    key = key_one
    key = key_two
    key warn = key_three
    ...
}

The "warn" keyword is optional and will log a message to syslog in
case the particular key is used. Keys will be tried in order, and the
first one that succeeds in decoding a packet will be used for the
particular connection.

Cheers,

Marc

That's a great feature Marc.  I've been wondering how we'd ever be
able to change the key- this makes it easy.  The warn feature was a
great touch!

I'm trying to get a tac_plus server running as a replacement to Cisco
ACS, while configuring the tac_plus.conf I'm running into an issue.
The server will be used for authenticating many routers we have
deployed and they are all divided up into different groups.  Each
group has a different key in use already and each group has at least
300 devices in it.

While trying to add multiple keys to the conf file, I get an error
when trying to restart tacacs_plus service.

The error states:
Error: Duplicate value for <string> testing123 and testing on line 88

the .conf file has the following in it:
host = x.x.x.x {
        key = testing123
        key = testing
}

What am I missing that is not allowing me to use multiple keys on this
server? Thanks in advanced!

You'll need to upgrade to the current snapshot.

Hi Blake,

I am trying to do same, this is, to get a tac_plus server running as a
replacement to Cisco ACS. Moreover, i have tried the multikey support of
tac_plus and it worked for me.

The tac_plus version that i am running is 201103121227

Kindly,

Paul

Thanks a lot for the reply, this is exactly what my issue was.  The
Ubuntu package for tac_plus apparently is pretty old.  New replacement
ACS is now up and running! :)

Thanks again,
Blake

Is there an ubuntu package for tac_plus? I didn't know that...
