Maybe not phase out, but replace. The Exec-Program-Wait attribute is a "magic' attribute, and as such, requires addiitonal code in the server core to manage. That code would be better off in a module. The idea is to move the code from the server core to rlm_exec, but the behaviour and functionality of Exec-Program shouldn't change. > I ask mainly because I have tried doing the same thing with rlm_exec and it > does not seem to get the appropriate data passed to it to do the same > authentication procedures and I end up with lots of auth failures.
