Hi,
I am currently deploying OpenSER v1.0 on a Linksys WRT54GS router ( www.milkfish.org ).
I have read through all available documentation concerning authentication and dbtext and I have configured OpenSER such that an MD5 hash string is stored in the subscribers file.
However (and this may-be specific to milkfish) the password was also always being stored as text. After editing and removing the parameter that stored the password as text in 'dbtextctl' authentication no longer works. This IMHO is because the UA is sending the password as text which is then being compared to the MD5 hash string, this test obviously fails.
One solution would be to receive the password as text, then construct the MD5 hash string then compare, however I don't know how to do this.
I have looked through openser.cfg but I can't seem to make heads or tails of (particularly the www_authorize and challenge part):
if (method=="REGISTER") { if (uri==myself) { #wants to register only at router, no external SIP provider #log(1, "internal REGISTER\n"); #make entry at local registrar if (!www_authorize("", "subscriber")) { www_challenge("", "0"); exit; }; save("location"); } else { #wants to register at external SIP provider #log(1, "external REGISTER\n"); #check if user is already registered at internal registrar if (!lookup("location")) { #if not do a drive-by registration #for registration at internal registrar #without a reply save_noreply("location"); }; #Fixing of private address in contact hf fix_nated_contact("217.189.167.187"); route(1); }; return;
};
If anyone could explain what is happening above, or how I could accomplish what I need (in which username, password and realm are received and an MD5 hash string is constructed) I would be much appreciated.
