Re: RADIUS and SSH

[Puchkov S.N.]

i solve a problem with using radius
to auth pop & smtp users in RedHat
require :
1) cyrus-imap
2) cyrus-sasl
3)make your own pam_unix module
general idea: in account stage i assign uid,guid,shell and etc.
from template user (i added it to passwd)
so now i don't need to add users in local machine
p.s.: 3) is already done in FreeBSD by the such way

I guess it's a good idea to have one passwd file
to auth pop,smtp,www,ppp users %-)

ofcourse you can
use ldap+freeradius ...

If you already have an authentication layer (PAM) that can talk to LDAP,
why the insistence on radius in the first place?

Jeez, radius is there to send attributes back to a NAS, not for SSH!
