"test2" user exist in /etc/password and /etc/shadow 2. I could ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] , and login OK. 3. Radius Authentication for user "test" using "LOCAL" is OK, however radius authetication for user "test2" using "System" failed, with an I've talked to redhat support, one support engineer told me He personally never able to get it work under redhat ES either. he suspect it might be something to do with PAM. so my questions remains: 1. anybody have luck using "Auth-Type := System" and got it work under redhat ES version 3.0 for Freeradius 0.9.3? 2. any suggestions for troubleshooting ? how PAM came into play during the radius authentication process?
