Has any succesfully used freeradius (or any radius) to authenticate user
for sendmail while maintaining all the /.forward functions?

Is there a pam module one could use on the mail server that would talk
to the radius server on another server?

You can get PAM to authenticate via Radius.

Why do you want radius to authenticate for sendmail? Sounds a bit
convoluted to me.

What problem are you actually trying to solve here?

you can authorize users but
radius can't send user home dir :(

That's what LDAP is for, radius is really for NASes to authenticate
dialup users / wireless users. Radius can read from LDAP for
username/password attributes if you want a central authentication
database...

we talk about using .forward in users deer %)
