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. -- Donnie - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
