Heya,

I am currently setting up a linux test/development freeradius server as a
backup for our current production radius server since it is an Intel Shiva
Access Switch, which had its "end of life" over a year ago.

However, the users file from the Shiva box that authorizes all of the
users has every password encrypted.  I have looked at Shiva's website, but
they don't seem to be very specific on what type of encryption is used, or
maybe I just don't understand it completly, here is a link:
http://www.intel.com/support/si/mgt/config/ex0907.htm
It is a "SALT encryption" according to their website, the closest thing I
can figure to that is the unix crypt...?

So, I am not sure how I can possibly take the current users file we have
and import it into a mysql database for authorization, since we do not
know each users cleartext password, and I am confused how I may be able to
decrypt the passwords that are currently in the users file.

Or maybe if I can discover the encryption type, I can enter the encrypted
text directly as clear-text into the mysql database and just use that
specific Auth-Type for FreeRadius?

Any ideas or suggestions would be excellent.  Thank you.
