EDAcS collects, archives, and reports remote user connections for security monitoring and investigations by using the RADIUS protocol (RFC 2866). EDAcS consists of two parts, the "edacsdb" database loader and the "edacsweb" reporting CGIs. The two parts can be installed independent of each other, and can reside on different systems. Both need connectivity to Oracle as the backend database system, using Oracle OCI with libsqlora.

Recent releases


Release Notes: New charts are generated for daily statistics, reachable by clicking on the corresponding monthly statistics chart. The edacs-chartsgen was rewritten to fix the bug of incorrect handling for new reporting routers. Compiler warnings due to changing a const ** variable were eliminated, also eliminating unsafe "strcpy".


Release Notes: A user-info.cgi script was added to show the remote IP or phone number a user is coming from. CGI crosslinks were added for quicker access to session data.


Release Notes: EDAcS was completely reworked. The CGI was changed from being written in Perl to being written in C and suing DBD/DBI to Oracle Instantclient (OCI) and libsqlora. Graph generation was redesinged from using rrdtool to using direct GD image generation.
