freeradius on freebsd

2011-11-30 Thread Jim Pazarena

I am having issues with freeradius being told
system passwords are incorrect by freebsd, where I
know they are not wrong.

I think it relates to freeradius submitting crypt passwords
while freebsd defaults to MD5.

Has anyone encountered this issue on FreeBSD? Seems the
freeradius newsgroup doesn't have any freebsd active
participants.

Could someone suggest how to coax freeradius to submit
MD5 encrypted passwords to the system?

in short your probably better off putting a db on the backend of
freeradius instead of
using system accounts, itll be alot easier that way and can be managed
separate from
the systems accounts

I have been using freeradius with FBSD for years with the system passwords.  
Works just fine.  Saves you a lot of hassle and extra work in some cases.  
Freeradius just passes along what it receives to the authentication mechanism.  
Any encryption is done at the NAS.  You may want to run with -X and save all 
the output.  That will show where the problem is occurring.  Even if you go 
with a database you have to get the encryption in the database the same as what 
the NAS is doing.
