Call to undefined function: socket_create()

[codecref]

Hi guys
following that php code for radius authentication I get this error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: socket_create() in D:\

http://www\authenticate.php

on line 93

which will be this line:

$sock=socket_create(AF_INET,SOCK_DGRAM,17);


and this is how my function look like:

function RADIUS_AUTHENTICATION($username,$password) {
global $debug;
global $SERVER_ADDR;
$radiushost="";
$sharedsecret="";
$suffix="";

init_radiusconfig(&$radiushost,&$radiusport,&$sharedsecret,&$suffix);

// check your /etc/services. Some radius servers
// listen on port 1812, some on 1645.
if ($radiusport==0)
$radiusport=getservbyname("radius","udp");

$nasIP=explode(".",$SERVER_ADDR);
$ip=gethostbyname($radiushost);

// 17 is UDP, formerly known as PROTO_UDP
$sock=socket_create(AF_INET,SOCK_DGRAM,17);
$retval=socket_connect($sock,$ip,$radiusport);

if (!preg_match("/@/",$username))
$username.=$suffix;

if ($debug)
echo "<br>radius-port: $radiusport<br>radius-host: $radiushost<br>username: $username<br>suffix: $suffix<hr>\n";

$RA=pack("CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC", // auth code
1+rand()%255, 1+rand()%255, 1+rand()%255, 1+rand()%255,
1+rand()%255, 1+rand()%255, 1+rand()%255, 1+rand()%255,
1+rand()%255, 1+rand()%255, 1+rand()%255, 1+rand()%255,
1+rand()%255, 1+rand()%255, 1+rand()%255, 1+rand()%255);

$encryptedpassword=Encrypt($password,$sharedsecret,$RA);

$length=4+ // header
16+ // auth code
6+ // service type
2+strlen($username)+ // username
2+strlen($encryptedpassword)+ // userpassword
6+ // nasIP
6; // nasPort

$thisidentifier=rand()%256;
// v v v v v v v v
$data=pack("CCCCa*CCCCCCCCa*CCa*CCCCCCCCCCCC",
1,$thisidentifier,$length/256,$length%256, // header
$RA, // authcode
6,6,0,0,0,1, // service type
1,2+strlen($username),$username, // username
2,2+strlen($encryptedpassword),$encryptedpassword, // userpassword
4,6,$nasIP[0],$nasIP[1],$nasIP[2],$nasIP[3], // nasIP
5,3,0,0,0,0 // nasPort
);

socket_write($sock,$data,$length);

if ($debug)
echo "<br>writing $length bytes<hr>\n";

// Wait at most five seconds for the answer.

$set=socket_fd_alloc();
socket_fd_zero($set);
socket_fd_set($set,$sock);
socket_select($set,null,null,5);
if (!socket_fd_isset($set,$sock)) {
echo "No answer from radius server, aborting\n";
exit(0);
}
socket_fd_free($set);


$readdata=socket_read($sock,1);
socket_close($sock);

return ord($readdata);
// 2 -> Access-Accept
// 3 -> Access-Reject
// See RFC2138 for this.
}

According to this page from the PHP online manual, PHP's socket_*() family of functions must be enabled at compile-time. Did you do that?

I don't know what is that because I didn't compile it and its under windows platform using IIS 5.1

There are instructions for compiling PHP on Win32 -- but you'll need Visuall C++ do to it.

There may be a 3rd-party PHP distribution for Win32, similar to Triad, which is compiled with socket support enabled.
