Applies To

RSA Product Set : SecurID
RSA Product/Service Type : RSA Authentication Manager
RSA Version/Condition: 8.0, 8.1
Platform : SUSE Enterprise Linux
Product Description : SecurID Appliance

Issue

RSA RADIUS debug data in the RSA RADIUS log file reports

"Failed to initialize communications for SecurID authentication (result = 403)"

Cause

RADIUS authentications generated defunct processes on Authentication Manager instances.

Resolution

A shared library used by RADIUS was modified in RSA Authentication Manager 8.1 Patch 2 so that Authentication Manager no longer generates defunct processes.

As of 25th May 2016, customers are advised to apply the latest software update of RSA Authentication Manager 8.1 Service Pack 1 Patch 14 as this includes the fix provided in RSA Authentication Manager 8.1 Patch 2.

NOTE: RSA Authentication Manager 8.1 Service Pack 1 (SP1) is a prerequisite of RSA Authentication Manager 8.1 Service Pack 1 Patch 14 (P14).

Installation instructions for RSA Authentication Manager Service Pack 1 and RSA Authentication Manager Service Pack 1 Patch 14 are in the associated readme (release note) for each software update.
